Abstract: Wild fires are a major problem in the northwest of the Iberian Peninsula. Only in Galicia during 2006 96 000 hectares were burned. There is no official cartography of those catastrophic events, and some of them are not even registered. This project develops an automated downloading and processing system for European Union's Sentinel satellites, in order to map burned land efficiently and with a high frequency. NBR and NBR-difference indexes are calculated from Sentinel imagery for the Galician area, using different imagery processing libraries. Later on, the data is transformed into vector files and uploaded to a geographical database to be show on an interactive web map.
