Between 2012 and 2025, VIIRS detected fire in 354 km² of Brescia at least once. In an average year it detected fire in 60 km², ranking 37th of 110 regions of Italy.
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 2022, with 92 km² detected; the quietest was 2024, with 40 km². The 2021–2025 average is 18% 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.
May, June and July together hold 37% of the fire-days in the record. The single busiest day was 27 February 2020, with detections in 17 cells.
Ground that burns again
Of the 354 km² with at least one detection, 20% had detections in three or more different years.

| 3 to 5 years | 35 | 10% |
| 6 to 10 years | 16 | 4.4% |
| 11 years or more | 20 | 5.6% |
The half-degree square with the most fire-days is centred at 45.25, 10.25 and holds 63% 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.
