Ontario Forest Fire Info Map

The Forest Fire Information Map (FFIM) is a public, interactive online map provided by Ontario’s Ministry of Natural Resources, through Aviation, Forest Fire and Emergency Services (AFFES), that shows current forest fire conditions across the province. It displays active and out fires, fire perimeters (where available), forest fire danger ratings, restricted fire zones, weather stations, and fire management boundaries, with danger ratings updated throughout the day based on weather data. The map supports public awareness and safety but is for informational purposes only, as conditions can change rapidly and the information is not intended for navigation or legal decision‑making.

The Forest Fire Information Map (FFIM) is an interactive, public online map provided by Ontario’s Ministry of Natural Resources through Aviation, Forest Fire and Emergency Services (AFFES). The map shows current forest fire conditions across Ontario, including active and out fires, fire perimeters (where available), forest fire danger ratings, restricted fire zones, and operational fire management areas. Fire danger ratings are updated throughout the day using data from more than 130 weather stations across Ontario’s fire region, helping users understand changing fire risk conditions.

The map also provides geographic context by displaying municipal boundaries, First Nation communities, fire management headquarters, weather stations, and fire region boundaries. It is designed to support public awareness, safety, and preliminary planning, and to help users understand where fire restrictions or elevated fire danger may be present. The information is provided for general reference only and should not be used for navigation or relied upon as a legal or authoritative source, as conditions can change rapidly.
