Active wildfires in Oregon.
Official NIFC incident records for Oregon, refreshed hourly. 26 of 43 are not yet fully contained.
Fires burning in Oregon.
Each circle is one incident, sized by reported acreage and coloured by containment — deep red for uncontained through to grey for fully contained.
Largest active fires in Oregon.
Recorded October 1, 2026 from the NIFC incident feed. Containment is the share of a fire's perimeter with a control line around it — not how much of it has been put out.

What a fire season does to Oregon water.
The reason a monitoring platform publishes a wildfire map at all.
Severe fire strips vegetation and can leave soil water-repellent, so rain a healthy watershed would have absorbed runs straight off the burn scar instead. That drives debris flows, channel scour, and pulses of ash and sediment into streams well downstream of anything that burned — raising turbidity, depressing dissolved oxygen, and, with the riparian canopy gone, raising water temperature across reaches cold-water species depend on. The elevated risk usually persists for several years, until vegetation re-establishes.
This is a situational-awareness map built from federal data. Perimeters lag the real fire edge, and smoke output is a forecast. For evacuation orders and life-safety information in Oregon, follow your local emergency management agency, county sheriff, and official incident channels.

Every Driftwise public map covers Oregon. No login, no paywall.
Watershed Explorer
Click any point in the country — or search a subbasin, gauge or lake by name — and read what nine federal datasets say about it: flow, drought, fire, smoke, flood forecast, satellite cyanobacteria screening, land cover, critical habitat and Clean Water Act impairment, each one labelled with what it is actually a fact about.
Streamflow Map — Oregon
Every reporting USGS stream gauge in the country, coloured by how today’s flow ranks against that gauge’s own record for this calendar day.
U.S. Drought Map — Oregon
The U.S. Drought Monitor — the country’s official weekly drought assessment — drawn across five severity categories from D0 to D4.
Flood Outlook Map — Oregon
NOAA’s river forecast centres call the next few days at every forecast gauge in the country, on the National Weather Service’s own flood categories — action, minor, moderate and major.
Impaired Waters Map — Oregon
Every subwatershed in the country against the states’ own Clean Water Act assessments — what is impaired, what is still on the 303(d) list, what is causing it, and how much of the country nobody has assessed at all.
Cyanobacteria Bloom Map — Oregon
NASA and EPA’s satellites read a pigment index over roughly 2,300 U.S. lakes large enough to resolve at 300 m. A pre-screening indicator, not a health assessment, and never a substitute for your state’s advisory.
Critical Habitat & Protected Waters Map — Oregon
Every river and stream the federal government has designated as ESA critical habitat, the listed species each unit is designated for, and who manages the protected land around it.

One platform for two monitoring programs.
Coordinate a multi-partner invasive species response, or manage the waterway program for a state park or conservation nonprofit. Bring your own program to the demo and we'll run Driftwise on it, live.
Request a demoA free 30-minute working session with your data on screen.
Scope a pilot for your program.
Tell us about your program — a watershed, an infestation, a trail system. We'll walk through how a field record becomes the report your agency and funders sign off on.
A working call, not a pitch
We spend the time on your actual program — the data you have now and the report you owe.
Guided onboarding
We import your existing records and configure the setup alongside your team. Role-based in-product tours carry the rest of the crew after the call.
Start with one season
Run a single pilot first and expand when it earns the next watershed.
Send us your corridor, watershed, or program and we'll build the working demo around your records. We reply within one business day.
