Based on the SiPongi forest and land fire monitoring system from the Ministry of Forestry, monitoring over the last 24 hours detected 4,882 hotspots across Indonesia. This figure represents an increase of 1,135 hotspots compared to the previous period.
This data was obtained from Terra/Aqua, SNPP, and NOAA satellite imagery accessed on Thursday (29/10/2026) at 11:50 WIB. Out of the total detected hotspots: 248 are classified as high confidence, 4,308 medium confidence, and 326 low confidence.
Hotspot confidence levels are divided into three tiers: low (0-29), medium (30-79), high (80-100). Higher confidence scores correspond to greater likelihood of active forest or land fires in the area.

The highest hotspot count was recorded in South Papua with 2,186 points, followed by East Kalimantan (575), Central Sulawesi (415), Southeast Sulawesi (396), Maluku (318), East Nusa Tenggara (248) and South Sulawesi (205).
A hotspot indicates a geographic coordinate with elevated surface temperature relative to its surroundings; this is not equivalent to confirmed fire incidents. However, clustered high hotspot counts strongly signal active forest and land fires, making satellite remote sensing the most effective monitoring method for large geographic areas.
