Mapping the Inferno: Harnessing Sentinel-2 Satellites and Python to build a Wildfire Perimeter

This notebook provides a step-by-step guide on wildfire mapping techniques using Python and Google Earth Engine. We explore how to access historical geospatial data from the Sentinel-2 and GOES-16/17 satellites in order to build an interactive map that offers real-time insights on the wildfire perimeters within British Columbia, Canada and beyond.

Topics covered:

  • Loading and processing satellite data from Google Earth Engine;
  • Geospatial visualization with the Python package - Folium;
  • Interactive mapping techniques.
