Showcasing some of the most interesting fire detections by @FirewatchBot ⬇️
In 2022, I created @FirewatchBot to automatically detect wildfires using Sentinel-2 imagery. Since then, it has analyzed TBs of data and detected more than 24k fires! ➡️ Today, I created a website to showcase some of the most interesting detections: firewatch.space
