XFires data products

The XFires cross-ECV project will draw on existing ECV data products relevant to extreme fires and their impacts, that have been generated by dedicated ESA Climate Change Initiative projects and elsewhere (e.g. Fire CCI burnt area).

The project will build a community database, whereby all ECV data will be merged into an easy-to-use community database in a common 0.25-degree global grid in NetCDF format. We will generate new and improved emissions datasets for extreme and normal fires at sub-monthly and monthly resolution for study of uncertainties (e.g. revised global GFED).

All existing ECV data products developed through the ESA Climate Change Initiative are free and open access via climate.esa.int/data.
