Between 2012 and 2025, VIIRS detected fire in 77 km² of Primorje-Gorski at least once. In an average year it detected fire in 8.4 km², ranking 21st of 21 regions of Croatia.
Year by year
Detected area per year, km². Area of 0.01° cells with at least one detection in the year.
The busiest year was 2012, with 21 km² detected; the quietest was 2025, with 1.7 km². The 2021–2025 average is 16% lower than the 2012–2016 average.
Through the year
Share of all fire-days 2012–2025 by month. A fire-day is one cell with a detection on one day.
March, April and May together hold 35% of the fire-days in the record. The single busiest day was 9 March 2012, with detections in 5 cells.
Ground that burns again
Of the 77 km² with at least one detection, 6.9% had detections in three or more different years.
| Years with a detection | km² | Share |

| 1 year | 66 | 85% |
| 2 years | 6.1 | 7.9% |
| 3 to 5 years | 2.7 | 3.5% |
| 6 to 10 years | 0.9 | 1.2% |
| 11 years or more | 1.7 | 2.2% |
The half-degree square with the most fire-days is centred at 45.25, 14.75 and holds 77% of the region's fire-days.

- How these figures are madeDetected area, cells, and the single-satellite record.
Detected area counts every 0.01° cell with at least one VIIRS detection, so a small fire counts as a whole cell and a fire missed by cloud or between passes is absent. Borders: Natural Earth 1:10m. 2012 begins on 20 January.
