Description
An Earth observation tool that turns Sentinel-2 and Landsat imagery into instant burn scar maps. Pick a location and date, and it pulls the closest satellite pass, runs Normalized Burn Ratio analysis, and classifies burned area — with before/after swipe comparison and downloadable GeoTIFFs for GIS work. Layer in live NASA FIRMS fire hotspots (VIIRS/MODIS) to track active fires alongside historical damage assessment.
