 ## FIRMS source status
 
+FIRMS ingestion and adaptation require explicit finite coordinates within WGS84 ranges; genuine zero coordinates remain valid and admitted detection indices stay sequential.

 The FIRMS proxy records source success after appending its rows. If aggregation
 throws, that source reports failure without a contradictory success entry.
