Based on the SiPongi forest and land fire monitoring system from the Ministry of Environment and Forestry (KLHK), monitoring over the last 24 hours recorded 185 hotspots detected across Indonesia. This count increased by 22 hotspots compared to the previous period.
This data was obtained from Terra/Aqua, SNPP, and NOAA satellite imagery accessed on Sunday (10/5/2026) at 11.34 WIB. Out of the 185 detected hotspots, 176 are classified as medium confidence level, while 9 are low confidence level.
Hotspot confidence levels are divided into 3 scales: Low level ranges 0 - 29, medium level 30 - 79, high level 80 - 100. Higher hotspot confidence level indicates greater probability of active forest and land fire occurrence in the area.

Most hotspots were detected in East Kalimantan with 42 points. East Nusa Tenggara ranks second with 20 hotspots, followed by North Maluku in third place with 17 hotspots.
12 hotspots were recorded in North Kalimantan, South Sumatra followed with 10 hotspots, while West Nusa Tenggara and Jambi each registered 9 detected hotspots.
A hotspot is a coordinate point where surface temperature is higher than its surrounding area; it does not represent the total number of fire incidents.
However, high concentration and clustered hotspots in an area indicate active forest and land fires. Satellite remote sensing hotspot detection remains the most effective method for large-scale wildfire monitoring across wide territories.
