A "contained" fire is no longer spreading but is not out: crews remain on site and it can flare up again. Statuses and areas come from press reports and official sources, matched automatically; they are not an official record : only the prefecture and the fire service are authoritative. An entry with no news for ten days is closed automatically, and each entry's history keeps track of who announced what, and when.

The location

No satellite detected this fire: it is known only through press and official sources. There is therefore nothing to replay : the map shows the place, and the timeline above tells what was announced. This is the most common case in France: a fire of a few hectares brought under control in the afternoon slips between two overpasses without leaving a single hot pixel.
