Use Python to acquire, read, plot, and aggregate the NOAA VIIRS Level 2 Active Fire product.


In this project, I'll show you a simple method for collecting and analyzing data from the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) Active Fire Product. The Active Fire product is a Level 2 product that provides global information on fires detected by the VIIRS instrument. It offers spatial resolutions up to 375 meters, making it an ideal choice for detailed mapping and analysis of active fire locations.
