A digital twin of Europe's forests.

Detect, predict and respond to wildfires in real time. Cameras, satellites and field infrastructure fused into one live model.

01 — The problem

Fire seasons start earlier, run longer and reach further north. Response has to move faster than the front.

EU burned area · 2025
1.08Mha

The largest area burned in the EU since EFFIS records began in 2006. Nearly double the 2006–2024 average.

Fires mapped · 2025
7,783

Across 25 of the 27 EU member states. Only Luxembourg and Malta did not burn.

Iberian share · August
43%

Of the EU total burned by 22 very large fires in Portugal and Spain, almost simultaneously, in three weeks.
