Summary
[edit]DescriptionBurn scar of Sardinia wildfires - Italy (Copernicus).jpg |
English: This image, acquired by one of the Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellites on 31 July 2021, shows the burn scar resulting from the disastrous wildfires in the province of Oristano in Sardinia, Italy. On 24 July, a fire broke out in the western part of Sardinia. Hundreds of people were evacuated, and tens of thousands of hectares of vegetation were lost. The rapid mapping module of the Copernicus Emergency Management Service was activated to monitor the situation by the EU's Emergency Response Coordination Centre upon request of Italy’s Civil Protection. The high-resolution open data provided by the Copernicus Sentinel satellites allow the effects of fires on vegetation to be monitored. |
