QR code

Activation date: 2022-09-12

Event type: Wildfire

Activation reason:

The CEMS Risk and Recovery Standard has been activated by the Spanish General Directorate of Civil Protection and Emergencies (CENEM) on behalf of the “Área de Coordinación de Emergencias y Protección Civil de Ceuta” following the forest fire that broke out in the Autonomous City of Ceuta (Spain) on 09 September 2022. The goal of the activation is to provide wildfire damage delineation and grading products and to assess the post-disaster erosion risk.  The P07-Wildfire delineation and grading product has been generated by using post-event VHR satellite images. The analysis resulted in 119.98 ha burnt, of which 36.74 ha have been slightly damaged, 34.25 ha moderately damaged, 38.99 highly damaged and 9.99 ha have been destroyed.The P16-Post-Disaster Soil Erosion Risk Assessment shows that the soil loss susceptibility is very low in some sectors of the AOI, but the risk is severe for other vast parts which is the case concerning the area affected by the fire.
