The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) aboard the Aqua and Terra satellites, Geostationary Operational and Environmental Satellites (GOES), and the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) aboard S-NPP and NOAA 20 (formally known as JPSS-1), represent fundamental tools for NASA’s wildfire remote-sensing capabilities.

Using an alpha shape algorithm, it integrates these data points, allowing for a comprehensive and dynamic tracking of fire attributes and shapes over time, facilitating near real-time monitoring of fire progression and characteristics within a region. The integration of satellite products can address several issues faced by aircraft IR missions: satellites are not manned and therefore do not pose a safety risk when deployed, satellites do not impede in Fire Traffic Area, there is a standard temporal resolution for every instrument, tools can provide real-time data, data processing, interpretation, and access can be handled by programs such as NASA FIRMS, there is a fixed cost associated with only creation and maintenance of the satellite tool, with nationwide to global coverage potential. -However, the integration of satellite observations has been limited due to the various issues cited by United State Forest Service (USFS), including resolution scale (i.e. 2 km for MODIS), false positives, limited swath width, analysis support, latency, post-processing of data, and temporal resolution (@olivia_proceedings_nodate, @usda_forest_service_fire_2020).
