The recent fire of Biebrza National Park has been one of the biggest challenge for rescue services and crisis managements units in Poland for years. More than 5,5 hectares were burnt. During fire service action there were used special planes and helicopters because of hard-to-reach peat and swamp areas. UAVs were used for situation assessment and place of incident documentation.

Experts from the Space Research Centre of the Polish Academy of Sciences used the satellite data to determine the extent of fire in the Biebrza National Park. Observations have shown that the fire area increased eightfold between 20 and 22 April reaching almost 4200 hectares.

Wishing you lots of health, beautiful time with your familiy and nothing but smiles, sunshine and optimism. Happy Easter 2020 !
