In recent years, wildfire has become a global social issue. In this study, by focusing Himawari-8, forest fire detection was carried out. The study site is Buryat Republic in Russia (East side of Lake Baikal). Himawari-8 temporal resolution is 10 min. So every 10 min the target fires were pursued. As a result, AHI-8 ch7 has highest potential for fire detection in AHI IR channel and 0.20 [km2] size forest fire could be detected. It was minimum fire detection. And fire power was calculated by AHI chs. 7, 13. From fire power and ch. 13, the type of fire was estimated. They were “fixed fire”, “advanced fire”and “spreading fire”.
