28. Burned areas are measured from space by detecting changes in how the ground reflects sunlight over time: when fire destroys vegetation and leaves charcoal or ash behind, the land becomes darker, and its “spectral signature” shifts. By analyzing these signatures from different dates, we can pinpoint where and when fire occurred independently from official reporting.
