Hazard Mapping System Fire and Smoke Product (HMS)

The Hazard Mapping System (HMS) Fire and Smoke Product is a valuable tool for monitoring and predicting the behavior of fires and smoke. The continental United States is monitored 24 hours a day, year round by polar and geostationary satellites that provide near real-time data on fire location, intensity, and extent as well as smoke analysis results based on visual classification of plumes. The system displays active fire detections and smoke information for each 24 hour period, starting with the earliest observations of the day, on a fresh map of North America. This information is essential for assessing the impacts of fires on air quality, public health, and the environment.灾害映射系统（Hazard Mapping System，简称HMS）火灾与烟雾产品是一款用于监测与预判火灾及烟雾态势的重要工具。该系统全年每日24小时对美国本土进行监测，极轨卫星与对地静止卫星可提供火灾位置、烈度、波及范围的近实时数据，以及基于烟羽视觉分类的烟雾分析结果。该系统会以全新的北美地图为载体，从当日最早观测时段开始，展示每24小时周期内的活跃火点检测结果与烟雾相关信息。此类信息对于评估火灾对空气质量、公众健康及生态环境造成的影响至关重要。
