About this dataset

This dataset contains Copernicus EMS Rapid Mapping products for activation EMSR929. On August 31, 2026, at 16.00 UTC, in Trapezitsa Mountain, near the city of Konitsa, Ipirus Region, Greece, a fire started due to a lightning, which mainly burned underground. At the time the fire was ongoing, burning a forest of black pine. A large number of firefighters and aerial means were used for fire suppression, assisted by municipality vehicles/machinery and volunteer organisations.Copernicus EMS Rapid Mapping was requested to provide initial rough estimation, fire extent and damage assessment emergency mapping. **Citation:** Copernicus Emergency Management Service (© 2026 European Union), EMSR929 **Product types present in this dataset's resources:** **DEL (Delineation)**: maps the extent of the event itself (eg. flood, fire, landslide boundary). **GRA (Grading)**: assesses damage to individual features (eg. buildings, infrastructure). Where a GeoPackage download is available for an Area of Interest/round, it already contains every layer with its official Copernicus styling and colours - prefer it in GIS software over the zipped shapefile download.
