28 Hotspots Detected in Indonesia in the Last 24 Hours (Wednesday, December 31, 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 28 hotspots were detected in Indonesia. This number of hotspots decreased by 48 compared to the previous period.

This data is the result of Terra/Aqua, SNPP, and NOAA satellite imagery accessed on Wednesday (12/31/2025) at 11.36 AM WIB. Out of the 28 detected hotspots, all 28 were of medium scale.

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

The highest number of detected hotspots was in Central Java, with 5 points. Southeast Sulawesi ranked second with 4 hotspots. East Kalimantan was in third position with 4 hotspots.

A total of 3 hotspots were detected in South Sulawesi, followed by North Maluku with 2 hotspots, and Central Sulawesi and West Nusa Tenggara each had 2 detected hotspots.

Hotspots are coordinate points of an area that have a higher surface temperature compared to their surroundings, and do not represent the number of forest and land fire incidents.

However, a large number of concentrated 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 large area.
