What we actually know: which detections sit next to a plant we track (ringed) — a 1 km geometric fact. We have no per-fire label; "mostly fires" is inferred from the season and from matching nothing. Toggle the unmatched layer to see the noise we filter out. The map has no basemap — the US is just the plants, plotted.
