Fire has been used for many years in Brazil, serving for various purposes. However, if handled wrongly, it can cause fires with immense damage to the environment. The Sertão and São Francisco Pernambucano mesoregions are susceptible to the occurrence of fires, since the predominant biome is the Caatinga, semi-arid climate and low rainfall. This article aims to characterize and quantify hot spots and operationally identify fires in the mentioned mesoregions in the period from 2014 to 2020, in the driest months of the year, as well as the power of plant regeneration. The images from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) sensor on board the TERRA platform, products MOD14A1, MOD09GQ, MOD13Q1 and MOD09Q1 were used in order to characterize the areas affected by hot spots, analyze the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and implement a script on the Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform for the operational identification of areas with potential for plant regeneration. Results show an increasing behavior in the number of hot spots, with a reduction in the year 2020. The year 2019 had the highest number of regenerated areas, with 37. The script proved to be effective with minimum hits of 56%, being in mostly greater than 75%. In addition, the maximum errors were 25% of omission in October 2020 and 43.75% of commission in September 2016. In this sense, the techniques employed were able to detect the regions affected by the fires, as well as their potential for plant regeneration.
