Riska: Wildfire Alerts

Riska gives you wildfire alerts for the places you care about in Portugal — a live fire map, daily IPMA fire risk, official ANEPC incidents, satellite detections and warnings by municipality. To know is to protect. INDEPENDENT APP — NOT A GOVERNMENT SERVICE Riska is not operated by, affiliated with, or endorsed by any government entity including ANEPC, IPMA, ICNF, or SGIFR. It aggregates publicly available data from the sources listed below and does not generate fire data independently. Information may be delayed or incomplete. In an emergency, follow official authorities and call 112. SAVE YOUR PLACES Your home, your land, your village. Set a watch radius and get alerted when a fire starts nearby — with distance, wind direction and incident status. FOLLOW FIRES LIVE - Official Civil Protection (ANEPC) incidents - Satellite detections (NASA FIRMS), with false-positive filtering - Daily IPMA fire risk by municipality - Weather warnings and wind concern zones - Burned areas (EFFIS/Copernicus) and air quality (Copernicus CAMS) ALERTS THAT EXPLAIN WHY Every alert says what is known and what is not — distance, wind direction, incident status.
