NASA FIRMS active fires

Overview

VIIRS near-real-time fire detections inside Sri Lanka's land bounding box.

Methodology

When NASA_FIRMS_MAP_KEY is configured, Lankawa pulls the FIRMS area CSV for VIIRS_SNPP_NRT over the district-map land bbox (2-day window). Pins are raw detections — not fire department confirmed incidents. Without a key, the panel stays empty with an explicit needs-key note.
