ESA Fire Climate Change Initiative (Fire_cci): Small Fire Dataset (SFD) Burned Area pixel product for Sub-Saharan Africa, version 1.1

The ESA Fire Disturbance Climate Change Initiative (Fire_cci) project has produced maps of global burned area developed from satellite observations. The Small Fire Dataset (SFD) pixel products have been obtained by combining spectral information from Sentinel-2 MSI data and thermal information from MODIS MOD14MD Collection 6 active fire products.

This dataset is part of v1.1 of the Small Fire Dataset (also known as FireCCISFD11), which covers Sub-Saharan Africa for the year 2016. Data is available here at pixel resolution (0.00017966259 degrees, corresponding to approximately 20m at the Equator). Gridded data products are also available in a separate dataset.

Distribution Information

Data format
  • The product is a set of three single-layer GeoTIFF files (labelled JD, CL and LC in the filenames for layers 1 to 3 respectively).

    Layer 1 (JD): Date of the first detection; Pixel Spacing = 0.00017966259deg (approx. 20m); Pixel value = Day of the year, from 1 to 365 (or 366) . A value of 0 is included when the pixel is not burned in the month; a value of -1 is allocated to pixels that are not observed in the month; a value of -2 is allocated to pixels that are not burnable (build up areas, bare areas, , snow and/or ice, open water). Data type = Integer; Number of layers = 1; Data depth = 16

    Layer 2: Confidence Level; Pixel Spacing = 0.00017966259deg (approx. 20m); Pixel value = 0 to 100, where the value is the probability in percentage that the pixel is actually burned, as a result of thedifferent steps of the burned area classification. The higher the value, the higher the confidence that the pixel is actually burned. A value of 0 is allocated to pixels that are not observed in the month, or not taken into account in the burned area processing (non burnable). Data type = Byte; Number of layers = 1; Data depth = 8

    Layer 3: Land cover of that pixel, extracted from the CCI S2 prototype Land Cover map at 20m of Africa 2016. N is the number of the land cover categories in the reference map. It is only valid when layer 1 > 0. Pixel value is 0 to N under the following codes: 1 – Trees cover area; 2 – Shrubs cover area; 3 – Grassland; 4 – Cropland; 5 – Vegetation aquatic or regularly flooded; 6 – Lichen Mosses / Sparse vegetation; Pixel Spacing = 0.00017966259deg (approx. 20m); Datatype = Byte; Number of layers = 1; Data depth = 8
