The Fire Product: Burnt Areas in Central Africa was part of the
International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme Data and Information
System (IGBP-DIS) Regional Satellite Fire Data Compilation CD-ROM.
Three hundred and ten Along Track Scanning Radiometer (ATSR-1) data
over Central Africa were used to detect areas affected by burning
during the 1994-1995 dry season. An algorithm was developed to detect
areas where over 50% of the pixel had burnt. The general features of
the data show the movement of burnt areas south across Central Africa
as the dry season progresses.
The data set provided consists of a raster image of Central
Africa. Each value in the raster image relates a point where burnt
areas were detected within the period 15 October 1994 to 10 March
1995.
