This work presents the MSG-SEVIRI sensors capacity for the detection of forest fires and the subsequent fire monitoring. The
Remote Sensing Laboratory of the University of Valladolid has a receiver system in real time as well as an operating fire detection
system, also in real time, that spreads results via the Internet. Here are shown some concrete results and the methodology
of the processes involved is explained.
