Map of Fire is used by people across many disciplines — from residents near wildfires to journalists, researchers, and firefighters — because of its real-time data and reliable visualization tools.
Real-time wildfires, evacuations, smoke, and weather data—everything you need to stay informed and safe during fire season.
View new and ongoing wildfires, plus detailed perimeters and prescribed burns to stay aware of fire activity across the U.S.
Visualize current and forecasted smoke, including surface and vertically integrated models, to plan for air quality and visibility impacts.

Map of Fire is developed and operated by MAPO LLC, a technology company specializing in mapping and geospatial applications. MAPO LLC continues the development of the platform, building on a wildfire mapping project originally launched in 2015.
Tesmond Hurd and Brian Sather launched the original fire mapping project through La Grande Ride, Inc., initially focused on smaller wildfires in Northeast Oregon. This is the first wildfire map of its kind.
The project transitioned to the Fire, Weather & Avalanche Center, expanding its wildfire coverage and reaching an audience of over 13 million users.
The fire mapping project became "Map of Fire" and transitioned to MAPO LLC. It continues its development through modernization of its technology, data integrations, and user experience.
Map of Fire continues to evolve and be a leading wildfire mapping application available on web and mobile.
Map of Fire is actively maintained and continuously improved. We regularly introduce new features, expand data integrations, and enhance our mapping capabilities. Visit our release notes to see what's new.
