The dataset contains year-wise number of forest fires detected in different types of forests, using satellite fire detections Note: From 2018 onwards, the FSI followed different methodology for categorisation forest fires. Instead of giving the number of forest fires each year, they are given as forest fires during the season. For example November 2018 to June 2019. The forest fires data by this...
