It converts the data to a format compatible with ArcIMS and creates a steady flow of the data to the Web Server. The Web Server updates the data being displayed on the internet by deleting the old data and displaying new data. The analyzed fires and smoke layer are update primarily between the hours of 1 pm and 11 pm Eastern time, with occasional updates during the rest of the day. The automated layers are updated twenty-four hours a day as new satellite imagery is received. The product covers the continental United States, Alaska and Hawaii. purpose: The Hazard Mapping System is an interactive processing system that allows the trained satellite analysts within the Satellite Services Division (SSD) to manually integrate data from various automated fire detection algorithms with GOES and polar (Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR), and Moderate Resolution Imaging spectroradiometer Fire Algorithm (MODIS) images. Theresult is a quality controlled display of the locations of fires and significant smoke plumes detected by meteorological satellites. status: (MD_ProgressCode) underDevelopment resourceMaintenance: (MD_MaintenanceInformation) maintenanceAndUpdateFrequency: (MD_MaintenanceFrequencyCode) continual descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: Hazard Mapping System Fire and Smoke Program keyword: HMS Fire and Smoke Product keyword: ABBA keyword: Automated Biomass Burning Algorithm keyword: WF-ABBA keyword: Wildfire Automated Biomass Burning Algorithm keyword: FIMMA keyword: Fire Identification Mapping and Monitoring Algorithm keyword: MODIS keyword: Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer Fire Algorithm keyword: GOES weather satellite keyword: AVHRR instrument type: (MD_KeywordTypeCode) theme thesaurusName: (CI_Citation) title: none date: (unknown) descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: United States keyword: Continental United States keyword: Alaska keyword: Hawaii type: (MD_KeywordTypeCode) place thesaurusName: (CI_Citation) title: none date: (unknown) descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: DOC/NOAA/NESDIS/NCEI > National Centers for Environmental Information, NESDIS, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce keyword: DOC/NOAA/NESDIS/NGDC > National Geophysical Data Center, NESDIS, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce type: (MD_KeywordTypeCode) dataCentre thesaurusName: (CI_Citation) title: Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Data Center Keywords date: (CI_Date) date: 2020-01-09 dateType: (CI_DateTypeCode) publication edition: 9.1 citedResponsibleParty: (CI_ResponsibleParty) organisationName: NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, Earth Science Data and Information System contactInfo: (CI_Contact) onlineResource: (CI_OnlineResource) linkage: https://www.earthdata.nasa.gov/learn/find-data/idn/gcmd-keywords name: Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Keywords description: The information provided on this page seeks to define how the GCMD Keywords are structured, used and accessed.

Tactical decisions, such as the activation of a response to fight these fires, should not be made without other information to corroborate the fire's existence and location. Users should note:1) Fires from the automatic detection algorithms outside the US may be included in some of the images, BUT they have not been quality controlled. Only the fires within the US have been scrutinized by the analysts.2) The HMS product for any given day is created and updated by a satellite analyst between 1pm and 11pm Eastern time. After 11pm, the analysis is fine-tuned as time permits. The final product for the previous day is "completed" for the archive at the beginning of the next day's fire shift.3) The fire sizes depicted in the product are primarily determined by the field of view of the satellite instrument, or the resolution of the analysis tool. They should not be used toestimate specific fire perimeters. resourceConstraints: (MD_LegalConstraints) accessConstraints: (MD_RestrictionCode) otherRestrictions otherConstraints: Access Constraints: None language: eng; USA extent: (EX_Extent) geographicElement: (EX_GeographicBoundingBox) westBoundLongitude: -165 eastBoundLongitude: -65 southBoundLatitude: 5 northBoundLatitude: 60 temporalElement: (EX_TemporalExtent) extent: TimePeriod: beginPosition: 2002-01-01 endPosition: return to top distributionInfo: (MD_Distribution) distributionFormat: (MD_Format) name: ASCII version: (unknown) distributor: (MD_Distributor) distributorContact: (CI_ResponsibleParty) organisationName: DOC/NOAA/NESDIS/NCEI > National Centers for Environmental Information, NESDIS, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce positionName: User Services contactInfo: (CI_Contact) phone: (CI_Telephone) voice: 303-497-6826 facsimile: 303-497-6513 address: (CI_Address) deliveryPoint: 325 Broadway city: Boulder administrativeArea: CO postalCode: 80305-3328 country: USA electronicMailAddress: ngdc.info@noaa.gov hoursOfService: 8am-5pm, Monday through Friday role: (CI_RoleCode) distributor distributionOrderProcess: (MD_StandardOrderProcess) fees: None transferOptions: (MD_DigitalTransferOptions) onLine: (CI_OnlineResource) linkage: http://www.ospo.noaa.gov/Products/land/hms.html return to top dataQualityInfo: (DQ_DataQuality) scope: (DQ_Scope) level: (MD_ScopeCode) repository levelDescription: (MD_ScopeDescription) other: NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information lineage: (LI_Lineage) processStep: (LE_ProcessStep) description: NOAA created the National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) by merging NOAA's National Climatic Data Center (NCDC), National Geophysical Data Center (NGDC), and National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC), including the National Coastal Data Development Center (NCDDC), per the Consolidated and Further Continuing Appropriations Act, 2015, Public Law 113-235.

The result is a quality controlled display of the locations of fires andsignificant smoke plumes detected by meteorological satellites. In addition to theanalyzed fires and smoke layers, several automated layers are available via the Webpage:GOES Fire Detects from the Wildfire Automated Biomass Burning Algorithm(WF-ABBA). The WF-ABBA system runs operationally at the Satellite ServicesDivision (SSD). The SSD product is a reformatted version of the North Americanproduct available on the Cooperative Institute for Meteorological Satellite Studies(CIMSS) at the University of Wisconsin website. The reformatting of the WF-ABBAproduct consists of removing the lowest probability fires (category 5), as validation atCIMSS has shown that many of the low possibility fires are not fires. The fields fire sizeand temperature have been removed as they are very rough estimates of the averageinstantaneous sub-pixel fire(s) size and temperature, and are not meant to be used forwildfire diagnosis. Each fire is described by a single line, specifying longitude, latitude, 4micron (channel 2) temperature, 11 micron (channel 4) temperature, ecosystemcategory, and a fire flag. This product is available within 30 minutes of the satellite imagetime. The product quality is very good. One problem can occur with GOES-West data.Due to low instrument saturation temperature, the algorithm may confuse hot surfaces(typically during the day, in the summer) for fires.AVHRR Fire Detects from the Fire Identification, Mapping and Monitoring Algorithm(FIMMA). result: (unknown) lineage: (LI_Lineage) processStep: (LE_ProcessStep) description: The Hazard Mapping System Fire and Smoke Program is an interactive processing system that allows the trained satellite analysts within the Satellite Services Division (SSD) to manually integrate data from various automated fire detection algorithms with GOES and polar (AdvancedVery High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR), and Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer Fire Algorithm (MODIS) images.
