About Fogos.pt

Fogos.pt is one of the main sources of information about wildfires in Portugal, providing near real-time data.

The platform was originally developed by João Pina, and is now operated by VOST Portugal, which ensures the integration, processing and publication of information to the public and operational entities, under the technical leadership of João Pina, also a founder of VOST Portugal.

More than an aggregator, Fogos.pt works as an integration layer that transforms complex data into clear, useful and actionable information.

Data origin and processing

The information results from the combination of multiple official and technological sources, including:

Authorities

  • ANEPC – Portuguese National Emergency and Civil Protection Authority
  • ICNF – Institute for Nature Conservation and Forests
  • AGIF – Agency for the Integrated Management of Rural Fires

Satellites and technology

  • Copernicus, NASA, Meteosat and Mapbox

Other complementary sources

  • Waze and OSINT contributions by VOST Portugal volunteers

All data is integrated, processed and validated by VOST Portugal, including verification, normalisation and operational contextualisation processes.

Partners and supporters

The continuity of the service is supported by:

  • ANEPC — through the cooperation protocol with VOST Portugal
  • PTServidor — technical infrastructure (pro bono)
  • Cloudflare — security and resilience (Project Galileo)
  • Mapbox — cartographic visualisation
  • AGIF — institutional framework

Commitment

Fogos.pt and VOST Portugal ensure the continuous operation of Fogos.pt, maintaining high standards of transparency, reliability and public utility, especially in critical contexts.
