Between 2012 and 2025, VIIRS detected fire in 6,530 km² of Lipetsk at least once. In an average year it detected fire in 664 km², ranking 54th of 85 regions of Russian Federation.
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 2014, with 1,770 km² detected; the quietest was 2022, with 138 km². The 2021–2025 average is 62% 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.
April, May and June together hold 39% of the fire-days in the record. The single busiest day was 30 March 2014, with detections in 166 cells.
Ground that burns again
Of the 6,530 km² with at least one detection, 7.9% had detections in three or more different years.
| Years with a detection | km² | Share |
|---|---|---|
| 1 year | 4,790 | 73% |
| 2 years | 1,230 | 19% |
| 3 to 5 years | 464 | 7.1% |
| 6 to 10 years | 23 | 0.3% |
| 11 years or more | 27 | 0.4% |
The half-degree square with the most fire-days is centred at 52.75, 39.75 and holds 78% 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.
