The remote sensing tenology is a only way to monitor it at large scale region. In general, two temporal vegetation index difference was used to detect the burned area. But this technology is difficult to be applied to large-scale region owing to the BRDF effect, atmospheric contamination, geolocation errors, phenological changes, vegetation regrowth and others. In this paper, a new approach was proposed to detect the burned area using MODIS data, which is based on the vector-change technology, and combines the MODIS 500 and 250 meter resolution bands data to find 250 meter resolution burned area. The method adequately uses the spectral and multi-spatial resolution character of MODIS data that can resist the noise pollution and improve the detection accuracy. The detection results are very corresponding with the visual interpretation under different background. Since the method needs no prior knowledge, it could also be applied in large region scale. Based on this algorithm, the burned area dataset covering all China from 2000 to 2004 were produced. © 2005 IEEE., Project Number 14404021, Peport of Research Project ; Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research(B)(2), from April 2002 to March 2006, Edited by Muramoto,Ken-ichiro, Kamata, Naoto, Kawanishi, Takuya, Kubo, Mamoru, Liu, Jiyuan, Lee, Kyu-Sung , 人工衛星データ活用のための東アジアの植生調査、課題番号14404021, 平成14年度～平成17年度科学研究費補助金, 基盤研究（B)(2)研究成果報告書, 研究代表者：村本, 健一郎, 金沢大学自然科学研究科教授, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Forest Fire Monitoring Center},
