Based on the SiPongi forest and land fire monitoring system from the Ministry of Environment and Forestry (KLHK), monitoring over the past 24 hours detected 11,385 hotspots across Indonesia. This figure decreased by 1,398 points compared to the prior period.

This data was obtained from Terra/Aqua, SNPP, and NOAA satellite imagery accessed on Wednesday (26/8/2026) at 11:36 WIB. Of the total detected hotspots: 635 have high confidence level, 10,354 medium, and 396 low confidence level.

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 the area.

The highest hotspot count was recorded in Central Kalimantan with 2,689 points, followed by West Kalimantan (2,167) and South Sumatra (1,315).

Further detections: 850 hotspots in South Kalimantan, 580 in South Papua, 526 in East Kalimantan, and 380 in West Papua.

Hotspots are coordinate points with elevated surface temperature relative to surrounding areas; this count does not represent total fire incident numbers.

However, clustered high hotspot volumes indicate active forest and land fire events. Satellite remote sensing hotspot detection remains the most effective method for large-scale wildfire monitoring.
