Post-processing (including regional filtering) of Satellite Active Fires and notify end-users Supports reading and processing VIIRS Active Fires EDR. There is support for filtering out fire detections using three different levels:

• National filtering, where all detections outside boarders as given by a shapefile are left out

• Filtering to exclude fire detections inside a set of polygons (meant to define populated areas and local industries known to be heat sources that can turn up as detections) from a shapefile

• Regional filtering, where detections are localisized in regions and output messages are treated accordingly.
