Canberra Firestorm poster

Bushfires ravaged around two-thirds of the Australian Capital Territory in January 2003. A firestorm on 18 January completely destroyed nearly 400 homes in Canberra. This Landsat 7 satellite image, acquired on 26 January 2003, shows burn scars caused by the bushfires.


Land cover in this image is shown in pseudo-natural colour: active fire fronts appear as irregular, bright red lines in the south and south-west; burnt areas appear as dark red-brown; bushfire smoke appears as pale blue and healthy vegetation appears as green.
