87 Hotspots Detected in Indonesia in the Last 24 Hours (Sunday, November 23, 2025)

Based on the SiPongi forest and land fire monitoring system of the Ministry of Environment and Forestry (KLHK), monitoring in the last 24 hours shows that 87 hotspots were detected in Indonesia.

This data is the result of Terra/Aqua, SNPP, and NOAA satellite imagery accessed on Sunday (November 23, 2025) at 11:12 AM WIB. Of the 87 detected hotspots, 1 point has a high hotspot confidence level, 84 points are on a medium scale, and 2 points are on a low scale.

Hotspot confidence levels are divided into 3 scales. The low scale ranges from 0 - 29, the medium scale from 30 - 79, and the high scale from 80 - 100. The higher the hotspot confidence level, the higher the likelihood of forest and land fires occurring in a particular area.

The most detected hotspots were in North Maluku with 38 points. East Nusa Tenggara ranked second with the highest number of hotspots with 13 points. North Sulawesi was in third place with 4 hotspots.

A total of 4 hotspots were detected in South Sulawesi, followed by Jambi with 4 hotspots, and West Nusa Tenggara and Central Java each had 4 and 3 detected hotspots, respectively.

A hotspot is a coordinate point in an area that has a higher surface temperature than its surroundings, and not the number of forest and land fire incidents.

However, a large number of clustered hotspots in an area indicates the occurrence of forest and land fires. This means that hotspot data from remote sensing satellite detection is still the most effective for monitoring forest and land fires over a wide area.
