Dates of Images: Post-Event: July 4, 2026 Pre-Event: June 19, 2026 Date of Next Image: Unknown Summary: The dynamically generated Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) layer is an index for quantifying green vegetation. It reflects the state of vegetation health based on how vegetation reflects light at certain wavelengths. Suggested Use: Dark green colors are areas with a lot of green leaf growth which indicates the presence of chlorophyll. Chlorophyll reflects more infrared light and less visible light. Areas with some green leaf growth are in light greens, and areas with little to no vegetation growth are even lighter greens.

OPERA Disturbance Alert from Harmonized Landsat Sentinel-2 (DIST-ALERT-HLS) for the New Mexico Wildfires, June 2025

Summary: Researchers working with the Global Land Analysis & Discovery (GLAD) at University of Maryland, College Park, Maryland and Advanced Rapid Imaging and Analysis (ARIA) and Observational Products for End-Users from Remote Sensing Analysis (OPERA) teams at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, California, created maps of surface disturbance due to ongoing wildfires in eastern and central New Mexico in June 2025 using the OPERA Disturbance Alert from Harmonized Landsat Sentinel-2 (DIST-ALERT-HLS) products. The results posted here are preliminary results, primarily intended to aid the field response and people who wanted to have a rough first look at the area impacted by wildfire. The ARIA-share website has always focused on posting preliminary results as fast as possible for urgent response. All information is provisional for use under emergency response guidelines. These data are provided with absolutely no warranty of any kind. Use at your own risk. OPERA DIST-ALERT-HLS: The Disturbance product (DIST) maps per pixel vegetation disturbance (specifically, vegetation cover loss) from the Harmonized Landsat Sentinel-2 (HLS) scenes. We provide the (1) maximum vegetation anomaly value (VEG-ANOM-MAX) layer and (2) vegetation disturbance status (VEG-DIST-STATUS). All provided layers have been filtered to include only disturbance detected following the start of the Seven Springs Fire, near Mescalero, NM (starting June 17, 2025). DIST-HLS-ALERT data provided were generated on June 30, 2025 and are derived from data acquired by the Copernicus Sentinel-2C satellite on June 26, 2025 (Seven Springs) and June 24, 2025 (Trout). The images are provided as GeoTIFF files. VEG-ANOM-MAX: Difference between historical and current year observed vegetation cover at the date of maximum decrease (vegetation loss of 0-100%). This layer can be used to threshold vegetation disturbance per a given sensitivity (e.g. disturbance of >=20% vegetation cover loss). The sum of the historical percent vegetation and the anomaly value will be the vegetation cover estimate for the current year. VEG-DIST-STATUS: Indication of vegetation cover loss (vegetation disturbance). The status label is based on the maximum anomaly value, confidence level, and whether it is ongoing or finished. ''First'' means the pixel has had an anomaly detection but no subsequent observations whether anomalous or not. ''Provisional'' means there have been two consecutive disturbance detections but not yet with high confidence. ''Confirmed'' means that vegetation disturbance is detected with high confidence. The label ''finished'' is applied to confirmed disturbances that have had two consecutive no-anomaly observations or one 15 days or more after the last anomaly detection. If a new disturbance is detected, it will overwrite those in a ''finished'' state. These labels are reported for both above and below the 50% disturbance threshold based on the maximum anomaly value. Suggested Use: VEG-DIST-STATUS Layer values: 0: No disturbance (suggested color: #121212) 1: first 2: provisional 3: confirmed 4: first >=50% (suggested color: #008888) 5: provisional >=50% (suggested color: #e48727) 6: confirmed >=50% (suggested color: #e01b07) 7: confirmed 8: confirmed >=50%, finished (suggested color: #dddddd) 255: No data (suggested color: transparent) VEG-ANOM-MAX Layer values: 0-100: Maximum loss of percent vegetation (suggested color: white to red gradient) 255: No data (suggested color: transparent) The DIST-ALERT-HLS products included here have these flags: 255 represents ''No Data'' and is based on the Fmask layer of the source HLS granule. OPERA DIST-ALERT-HLS data availability: The post-processed products are available to download at https://aria-share.jpl.nasa.gov/20250630_NewMexico_Fires/DIST-HLS/ The OPERA DIST-HLS products have been in production since January 2022, are freely distributed to the public via NASA's Land Processes Distributed Active Archive Center (LP DAAC), and can be downloaded through NASA's Earthdata search.

Dates of Images: Post-Event: August 13, 2026 Pre-Event: August 3, 2026 Date of Next Image: Unknown Summary: The True Color RGB composite provides a product of how the surface would look to the naked eye from space. The RGB is created using the red, green, and blue channels of the respective instrument. The Color Infrared composite is created using the near-infrared, red, and green channels. The near-infrared gives the ability to see through thin clouds. Healthy vegetation is shown as red, water is in blue. The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) layer is an index for quantifying green vegetation. It reflects the state of vegetation health based on how vegetation reflects light at certain wavelengths. Suggested Use: The True Color RGB provides a product of how the surface would look to the naked eye from space. The True Color RGB is produced using the 3 visible wavelength bands (red, green, and blue) from the respective sensor. Some minor atmospheric corrections have occurred. The Color Infrared composite depicts healthy vegetation as red, water as blue. Some minor atmospheric corrections have occurred. For NDVI, dark green colors are areas with a lot of green leaf growth which indicates the presence of chlorophyll. Chlorophyll reflects more infrared light and less visible light. Areas with some green leaf growth are in light greens, and areas with little to no vegetation growth are even lighter greens.

Skysat Imagery (NDVI) for the Kansas Fires May 2026

Dates of Images Post-Event: 5/17/2026 Summary Skysat is a high-resolution satellite constellation operated by Planet and allows for multiple viewing opportunities of any location on Earth daily. Skysat collects 4-band imagery which allows for multiple derived products to be produced. Normalized Differential Vegetation Index (NDVI) maps are produced by converting pixel values to NDVI = (Red – NIR)/(Red + NIR), NIR indicates the near infrared band. The dynamically generated Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) layer is an index for quantifying green vegetation. It reflects the state of vegetation health based on how vegetation reflects light at certain wavelengths. Resolution ~1 m Credits NASA Disasters Program, Processing from MSFC, Planet.

Planet NDVI and NDWI for the US Severe Weather April 2025

Date of Image(s): Post-Event: April 7,2025; April 8, 2025 Date of Next Image: Unknown Summary: Normalized Differential Vegetation Index (NDVI) maps are produced by converting pixel values to NDVI = (Red – NIR)/(Red + NIR), NIR indicates the near infrared band. The dynamically generated Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) layer is an index for quantifying green vegetation. It reflects the state of vegetation health based on how vegetation reflects light at certain wavelengths. Normalized Differential Water Index (NDWI) maps are produced by converting pixel values to NDWI = (green – NIR)/(green + NIR). Higher Planet scene numbers are layered over lower scene numbers. Normalized Difference Water Index (MNDWI) provides a different view of the Earth's surface combining different bands to make water bodies more obvious. This index can be used to identify flooded areas as well as heavily saturated areas. Suggested Use: NDVI: NDVI is commonly used to distinguish healthy/active vegetation (1) from unhealthy/dormant vegetation (-1). NDWI: Thresholding of NDVI is one technique used to distinguish surfaces covered by water (-1) from surfaces not covered by water (1). Satellite/Sensor: PlanetScope.
