Ruined Castle Bushfire - December 2019  (Madi Maclean)

NSW bushfires can be tracked at Fires Near Me. This is the information to monitor and act on.

In addition, there's Digital Earth Australia Hotspots which is a national bushfire monitoring system that uses satellite sensors to detect areas producing high levels of infrared radiation. NB. The satellites only pass over a given area between 2 and 4 times a day.

ArcGIS provides a more detailed map that shows the hot spots and combines it with the Fires Near Me information. Zooming in shows the detail.  magic!
