Data Products ›› LANDFIRE National

LANDFIRE National products comprise a set of 20+ digital maps of vegetation composition and structure, wildland fuel (crown and surface), simulated historical fire regimes, and current departure from simulated historical vegetation conditions. LANDFIRE National procedures integrate relational databases, remote sensing, systems ecology, gradient modeling, and landscape simulation to create consistent and comprehensive products that are standardized across the entire United States. LANDFIRE is currently delivering national products on an incremental basis through 2009. To view the mapping status of each LANDFIRE mapping zone (conterminous U.S.), click here.
