258 Hotspots Detected in Indonesia in the Last 24 Hours (Saturday, November 29, 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 258 hotspots were detected in Indonesia. This number of hotspots increased by 102 points compared to the previous period.

This data is the result of Terra/Aqua, SNPP, and NOAA satellite imagery accessed on Saturday (29/11/2025) at 11:12 AM WIB. Of the 258 hotspots detected, 4 points had a high confidence level, 252 points were medium scale, and 2 points were low scale.

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

The most hotspots were detected in East Kalimantan with 63 points. Central Kalimantan ranked second with the highest number of hotspots at 36 points. North Maluku was in third position with 24 hotspots.

A total of 17 hotspots were detected in South Papua, followed by Central Sulawesi with 16 hotspots, and East Java and South Kalimantan each having 13 and 13 hotspots detected.

A hotspot is a coordinate point in an area that has a higher surface temperature than its surroundings, and it is not the number of forest and land fire incidents.

However, a large number of hotspots clustered 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 in monitoring forest and land fires over large areas.
