Hi, > Thank you. Does the GOES-18 data include fire detection product/imagery? My expectation is that what you currently see for GOES-16/17 will exist for GOES-18. These three satellites, for all intents and purposes, are identical and should report the same data. I see we offer the Fire Detection (a.k.a. FireHotSpot) product from both GOES-16 and GOES-17 (links below) and I don't know of any reason why GOES-18 wouldn't have the same. https://thredds.ucar.edu/thredds/catalog/satellite/goes/east/products/FireHotSpot/catalog.html https://thredds.ucar.edu/thredds/catalog/satellite/goes/west/products/FireHotSpot/catalog.html Was there anything else you were looking for?
