Based on the forest and land fire monitoring system SiPongi from the Ministry of Environment and Forestry (KLHK), monitoring over the last 24 hours recorded 329 hotspots detected across Indonesia.
This data comes from Terra/Aqua, SNPP, and NOAA satellite imagery accessed on Monday (4/5/2026) at 11:10 WIB. Of the 329 detected hotspots: 1 had high confidence level, 314 medium confidence, and 14 low confidence.
Hotspot confidence is divided into 3 tiers: Low (0-29), Medium (30-79), High (80-100). Higher hotspot confidence indicates greater likelihood of active forest and land fires in that area.

Most hotspots were recorded in East Kalimantan with 125 points, followed by Central Sulawesi (52 points) and North Kalimantan (20 points).
Additional detections: East Nusa Tenggara (16), North Maluku (14), East Java (13), West Kalimantan (12) hotspots respectively.
Hotspots are geographic coordinates showing elevated surface temperature relative to surrounding areas; this count does not equal total fire incidents.
However, clustered, high-volume hotspot signals are reliable indicators of forest/land fire activity, and remain the most effective method for large-area wildfire monitoring using remote sensing satellites.
