Fires in general and forest fires specific are a major concern in terms of economical and biological loses. Remote sensing technologies have been focusing on developing several algorithms, adapted to a large kind of sensors, platforms and regions in order to obtain hotspots as faster as possible. The aim of this study is to establish an automatic methodology to develop hotspots detection algorithms with Spinning Enhanced Visible and Infrared Imager (SEVIRI) sensor on board Meteosat Second Generation platform (MSG) based on machine learning techniques that can be exportable to others geostationary platforms and sensors and to any area of the Earth. The sensitivity (SE), specificity (SP) and accuracy (AC) parameters have been analyzed in order to develop the final machine learning algorithm taking into account the preferences and final use of the predicted data.
