Hi @triszlers & @ottopegotti ,

There is a temporary unexpected outage of the FIRMS API due to website slowness. I do not have a full resolution time, however, you may check here, https://firms.modaps.eosdis.nasa.gov/notifications/firms/outages.html, for outage and resolution information.

Hi tmccabe , As far as we are aware there was no outage to our API. Yes we do have a standard limit of 5000 transactions / 10-minute interval.

Hello,

Thank you for your interest in FIRMS.

Thanks,

The temporary solution is to change the transparency of the layer (start with reducing it from 100%) and go from there.To make a WMS layer transparent in QGIS, y...

Sounds good. You can also reach out via the feedback module on the FIRMS website to get in contact with us easier in the future. Thank you for the interest in FIRMS data as well!

Hi,

As far as I am aware there is nothing wrong with our system. I can try my best to assist though. In the picture attached what are you showing on the Y-axis? Also what kind of system are you pulling this data in through?
