About Dataset

This dataset contains satellite images (350x350px) in 2 classes :

• Wildfire : 22710 images
• No wildfire : 20140 images

How

Using Longitude and Latitude coordinates for each wildfire spot (> 0.01 acres burned) found on the dataset above we extracted satellite images of those areas using MapBox API to create a more convenient format of the dataset for deep learning and building a model that can predict whether an area is at risk of a wildfire or not
