Detection Confidence & Agency Alert Levels

Embersat reports its own confidence in each detection. Public fire-agency alert levels (Advice, Watch and Act, Emergency Warning) are only shown when sourced from a live agency feed or a dispatcher who has confirmed with the agency — we never assign them from satellite evidence alone.

Embersat Label Detection Status Meaning
Cross-validated CONFIRMED Multi-source satellite corroboration
Probable LIKELY Repeated detection, awaiting independent corroboration
Unverified PROVISIONAL Single-source satellite anomaly
Monitored MONITORING Previously cross-validated, under observation
Retracted RETRACTED Not corroborated, likely false positive
Agency-confirmed (badge) Fire-agency feed (NIFC) match or dispatcher confirmation
