Based on the SiPongi forest and land fire monitoring system from the Ministry of Forestry, monitoring over the past 24 hours recorded 8,973 hotspots across Indonesia. This represents a decrease of 11,419 hotspots compared to the prior period.
Data was obtained from Terra/Aqua, SNPP, and NOAA satellite imagery accessed on Tuesday 20 October 2026 at 11:51 WIB. Of the detected hotspots: 520 have high confidence, 7,965 medium confidence, 488 low confidence.
Hotspot confidence uses 3 tiers: low (0-29), medium (30-79), high (80-100). Higher confidence indicates greater probability of active forest/land fires in the area.

The highest hotspot counts were recorded in Central Kalimantan (1,221), followed by South Sumatra (1,053) and South Kalimantan (837).
East Java registered 807 hotspots, South Papua 729, while Central Sulawesi and South Sulawesi recorded 572 and 551 hotspots respectively.
Hotspots are geographic coordinates showing higher surface temperature than surrounding areas; they do not directly equal the number of fire incidents.
However, clustered and elevated hotspot counts indicate active forest/land fire events. Satellite-detected hotspot data remains the most effective method for large-area fire monitoring.
