Questions this answers
2 · best fit firstGDACS's standing public event product returns forest-fire event and episode identity, point geometry, affected country, source, event start/end, and modification time for buyer-selected WF events. It supplies indicative global evidence of where and when a documented forest-fire incident occurred, but is not local fire-department ground truth.
For a buyer-selected forest-fire event and episode, GDACS returns a GWIS-sourced MultiPolygon labelled `Affected Area`, with polygon date, event/episode and source identity, event interval, and modification time. It can determine whether a location lay within the mapped affected area, but is indicative automatic evidence rather than an official incident-command perimeter.
Fields it delivers
7 fieldsFirst-party materials represent this product family as global or worldwide; country enumeration would be misleading. Coverage remains limited to the events, entities, reports, or records within the product definition.
The publisher provides the cited public API, download, lookup, or report directly, with no subscription, order form, or per-use payment required. An ordinary eligible business buyer can therefore use the standing route free of monetary cost, subject to any linked terms.
