Live fire map of Brazil
Live fire map of Brazil
Live wildfire map for Brazil, updated continuously from NASA satellite hotspot detections. See where fires are burning right now across the Amazon, Cerrado and Pantanal, how intense they are, and the fire-danger level in each state — with a dedicated page for every significant fire and a day-by-day archive of the whole season. Click any state for its local fire map.
⚠️ The fires shown are automatic satellite heat detections from NASA FIRMS. They are not verified on the ground and are not 100% accurate — they can include false alarms (industrial heat, agricultural burning) or miss small or cloud-covered fires. Do not use this map for safety decisions; always follow official sources.

About this fire map
Fire Map Today shows wildfires across Brazil in one live view, built from NASA satellite heat detections, with INPE / Programa Queimadas as the national reference. Nearby detections of the same fire are grouped into a single fire event with its own page, and every day is archived so you can look back over the season. It republishes public data and is not an official warning service.
How this map works
Zoom out for the national picture; zoom in and the individual satellite detections appear. Fires are shaded by intensity and each region is coloured by its fire-danger level. Satellites pass several times a day and cannot see through thick cloud or smoke, so a real fire can be missed for hours and some heat sources are not wildfires — always check official sources.
Where the data comes from
Active-fire detections come from NASA FIRMS (VIIRS and MODIS sensors). INPE / Programa Queimadas is the national reference for fire hotspots and fire events. The fire-danger level is a fire-weather index modelled from live weather via Open-Meteo. State borders are official IBGE boundaries. In an emergency call 193 (fire brigade) and follow Civil Defence.

Staying safe near wildfires
If you are near an active fire, do not rely on this map for safety decisions — satellite detections can be delayed for hours by cloud, smoke or the timing of the satellite pass, and some heat sources are not wildfires. Always follow your official emergency service and local warnings, prepare an emergency plan, and leave early if you are in a high fire-danger area. This is a free public information service, not an emergency-alerting system.
Fire season in Brazil
Brazil’s fire season concentrates in the dry season, July to October. In Amazônia most hotspots follow deforestation and pasture clearing along the deforestation arc. In the Cerrado fire is frequent and recurrent, and in the Pantanal, in drought years, fire burns peat and wetland vegetation and can persist for weeks.

Highlighted months are the peak of the season.
| Area | When | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Amazônia (deforestation arc) | Ago–Out | Deforestation and pasture clearing in the dry season. |
| Cerrado | Jul–Set | Fire-adapted savanna with an expanding agricultural frontier. |
| Pantanal | Ago–Out | In drought years fire burns peat and wetland vegetation for weeks. |
