Fires are recurrent in Brazil to clean up and increase territories. Temporal analyzes on the subject show that the municipality of Floresta in Pernambuco stands out in the number of cases in the month of November 2019. This article aims to collect and quantify the incidence of hotspots and burned areas in the aforementioned region and month, in addition to of land use and cover conditions based on remote sensing techniques. Information from the Pernambuco Water and Climate Agency (APAC) was used for climatology. The databases of the Burning Database were used to collect and quantify hotspots. MODIS/TERRA, MODIS/Combinado and Landsat-8/OLI images were applied in the characterization of burned areas, image interpretation and calculation of vegetation and fire indexes. 35 fire areas were identified, 31 of which were confirmed hotspots, totaling 208. Of these areas, 7 coincided with November 6, 2019, Julian day 310. It was observed by the WDRVI, IAF and NDVI vegetation indices that the Healthy vegetation behavior is uniform, with low to moderate density. After the fire, the use and cover of the soil regenerated, with no change. The SAVI and the NBR and NBR2 exhibit very strong and strong positive correlation coefficients, respectively, indicating the dependence of one variable on the other. In this way, remote sensing proved to be effective in the study of land use and cover conditions, as well as the identification of fires in the municipality of Floresta.
