The magenta circles are wildfires that are out of control, the yellow circles are fires that are being held and the green circles are fires under control.
As you zoom into the map and explore, you will also see red outlines, which show wildfire perimeters. These are fires, often thousands of hectares in size, which indicate fires that have merged and become clusters.
