Active fires in Australian Capital Territory

No satellite fire detections were assigned to Australian Capital Territory in the last 48 h. Across Australia there are 313 fire clusters right now. A quiet satellite picture covers passes only: small fires and fires under cloud or thick smoke may be missed, and a new fire can start between passes.

Fires are assigned to the state of the nearest listed city, so a fire close to a border can show under the neighbouring state.

Official fire information and evacuations

GodsView shows satellite detections only, not fire perimeters, containment or evacuation zones. Follow orders from local authorities.

Bushfire warnings in Australia are issued by state services; here that is the ACT Emergency Services Agency (esa.act.gov.au). Follow the Australian Warning System levels (Advice, Watch and Act, Emergency Warning).

About this fire map

Satellite thermal hotspots are not all wildfires: gas flares, steel works, volcanoes and planned agricultural or prescribed burns show up too. VIIRS passes over most places about twice a day, so a fire can start or grow between passes, and thick smoke or cloud can hide one.
