Service Description: The burnt areas were obtained as polygons from the European Forest Fire Information System (EFFIS) of the European Commission Joint Research Centre (JRC) (http://effis.jrc.ec.europa.eu). The polygons were dissolved in order to create one layer for all the years; therefore, if an area has been affected by fires on multiple occassions, it will just present as affected by fires.

Title: Areas burnt by wildfires between 2000 and 2017
Author:
Comments: The burnt areas were obtained as polygons from the European Forest Fire Information System (EFFIS) of the European Commission Joint Research Centre (JRC) (http://effis.jrc.ec.europa.eu). The polygons were dissolved in order to create one layer for all the years; therefore, if an area has been affected by fires on multiple occassions, it will just present as affected by fires.
Subject: The extent of areas directly affected by wildfires in the past can be used as one of the indications, where the danger of wildfires may persist or increase in the future under the changing climate.
