The Campaign
FireSense is an ongoing NASA project aimed at advancing scientific and technological capabilities for improved wildland fire management and forecasting in the United States. It has completed three deployments during the boreal fall and spring of 2023-2025 across the western and southeastern United States. Multiple aircraft were equipped with remote sensors such as the MODIS/ASTER Airborne Simulator (MASTER), Uninhabited Aerial Vehicle Synthetic Aperture Radar (UAVSAR), Airborne Visible/Infrared Imaging Spectrometer 3 (AVIRIS-3), and Scanning L-band Active Passive (SLAP) to collect data on vegetation, soil moisture, and areas impacted by wildfires. FireSense is part of a larger Wildland Fire Initiative within NASA and is funded by NASA’s Science Mission Directorate.
