Ground surface temperatures as viewed from above at 11.9 micrometers wavelength on 25 September 2002, at 12:09 pm PDT.

Fire Imagery

These color-coded images depict apparent ground surface temperatures in Celsius.

The background image is a shaded relief map from 10-meter DEM elevation data. Text, roads and stream courses are from a 1:250k topo map.

Do not depend on these images for accurate fireline locations. Use the map backgrounds as a general location guide, and look for recognizable terrain features or landmarks on the imagery itself for relative positioning of hotspots. Bodies of water, street grids, open fields, highways, ridgelines and stream courses show up well in this imagery.
