ABSTRACT El Dinder National Park (DNP) is one of the oldest parks in Africa. It was established in 1935, DNP is included in the UNSCO list of Biosphere Reserves since 1987, Fire in DNP starts as early as midSeptember (Dasmann, 1972). During the Dry Season in DNP, the quantity of Forest Fires increment quickly and there is have to create, with high productivity, fire counteraction procedures, so as to maintain a strategic distance from the loss of Natural Resources. As some other natural disaster, there for, this Study utilized Analysis of the Remote Sensing information Time-Series of Multispectral Satellite Imagery of Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) satellite data to create a historical back ground of wild land fire system. Consumed zone were distinguished for the years 2013-2014-2015 dependent on direct strategy for Visual and Digital Interpretation of burned scars zone, to find and map territories that have been scorched in past occasions (Burnt Scars), burned zones recognizable on imagery by Bare Ground and Dark Charcoal/debris appearance, the static result shows the Maximum Area Burnt in the park in year 2013 (1342.63) ) and the Minimum Area Burnt in year 2013 (1334), The study uncovered a few significant Facts with respect to the flames, which by and large start in September and proceed until November and arrive at the furthest degree this month, MODIS Sensor has additionally demonstrated profoundly effective in Detecting and Mapping Fires, the Study uncovers that the majority of the Fires were in the Eastern, Northern, Southern and Central pieces of the investigation area, the least uncovered zones were in the Western aspect of the examination region. KEYWORDS: El Dinder, , MODIS, Wild land, forest fire, Analysis.

INTRODUCTION
Backwoods Fires are an exceptionally normal issue that affects Terrestrial, oceanic, and atmospheric Systems all through the globe. Consistently the world faces outrageous wild fires which influence a large number of Hectares of Forest prompting antagonistic impacts on biodiversity, ecosystem working and landscape solidness. Woodland fires are generally named Crown Fires, Surface Fires and Ground Fires based on power. As indicated by United Nations study, the complete Forest territory of the world in 1900 was about 7000 M ha and by 1975, it was diminished to 2890 M ha (Haywood 1995). Serious forest fires have happened in numerous countries in Asia, Africa, Europe, North America, South America and Australia. Remote Sensing presents the main feasible wellspring of Timely and Consistent information for consumed region evaluation and spatially express fire impact analyses. The significance of Burned Area Mapping is reflected in the various algorithms and approaches produced for this application in numerous pieces of the world Perceptions got from coarse Resolution instruments (for example SPOTVEGETATION, AVHRR, MODIS, and ASTER) are of specific significance since they give every day observations and monitoring of fire movement (Temporal Availability), spatially it has enormous inclusion area, and it's accessible liberated from cost through the web. The Fire Season in Sudan begins after the finish of the stormy Season when the grasses become dry and that in long periods of September and the dangers increment with increment of Herbs and Rising Temperatures is decreased Atmospheric Humidity with Northeast dry breezes. This Study gives an assessment of some fire products from MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spector radiometer) items for planning the Burned territory.
