* RT and URT data are removed when corresponding NRT detections are processed or RT/URT is older than 6 hours.

NASA EOSDIS defines Real-Time as data that is made available within 60 minutes of satellite overpass. URT is much quicker than that. FIRMS makes URT data available in less than 60 seconds of satellite fly over for much of the US and Canada
