GeoSpatial Live Imaginary Data for Defense Startup
How can I gather Live Geo Spatial Imagery information, that I can use to detect anomalies, unusual activity, smoke and activities like that, that can trigger and we can get live updates.

Re: GeoSpatial Live Imaginary Data for Defense Startup
Good morning,
Thank you for your question. You can retrieve global active fire and hotspot data from NASA's Fire Information for Resource Management System https://earthdata.nasa.gov/data/tools/firms . FIRMS distributes Near Real-Time (NRT) active fire data from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) aboard the Aqua and Terra satellites, and the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) aboard S-NPP, NOAA 20 and NOAA 21 (formally known as JPSS-1 and JPSS-2). Globally these data are available within 3 hours of satellite observation, but for the US and Canada active fire detections are available in real-time.
Find NASA FIRMS tutorials and other learning resources at: https://firms.modaps.eosdis.nasa.gov/tutorials/
Access the Smoke/Aerosols mode within the NASA FIRMS Global interface "Main Map Menu": https://firms.modaps.eosdis.nasa.gov/map/#m:smoke;d:24hrs,24hrs;@0.0,0.0,3.0z

The NASA FIRMS team may follow up with you here with additional guidance.
