ASMC regional haze and hotspot portal
The ASEAN Specialised Meteorological Centre (ASMC) runs a regional haze and hotspot information service and GIS portal for Southeast Asia.
Data and operations
It provides satellite hotspot layers, haze maps, weather observations, rainfall, wind/model overlays, PM10 context, and regional haze products.
Endpoints and products
Official material identifies a WIS 2.0 regional-haze collection and an API item path at api.wis2.asmc.asean.org documentation, in addition to the ASMC GIS portal.
Coverage and access
Thailand is explicitly supported in ASMC's country-level hotspot information and lies within the ASEAN regional haze coverage.
Access and terms
The public GIS and information pages are open to view. The retrieved WIS 2.0 material did not state account/payment requirements for the cited regional-haze item.
Updates
ASMC states that the WIS 2.0 regional haze map is updated once daily, around 08:30–10:30 UTC. Other layers have their own schedules; weather observations are shown at synoptic times and rainfall is updated daily.
Limits
ASMC cautions that satellite hotspots can be missed by cloud cover or partial satellite passes and that hotspot detections are possible active fires, not a complete ground-verified fire record.
