Raster of Active Fires frequency per square kilometer for the period 01/01/2019 - 25/09/2019, based on MODIS Collection 6 Active Fire Product MCD14ML. Only location points described as "presumed vegetation fire" in the attributes are included in the frequency calculation. <br> This raster layer was produced by GRID-Geneva. Data accessed in October 2019, at https://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov/data/dataprod/mod14.php. <br> <br> The MODIS active fire product detects fires in 1-km pixels that are burning at the time of overpass under relatively cloud-free conditions using a contextual algorithm.
