Prescribed Burning
-
Prescribed fire, also known as controlled burning, refers to the controlled application of fire to help restore health to fire-adapted environments, benefitting wildlife and timber values. Prescribed fire reintroduces the beneficial effects of fire into an ecosystem, producing the kinds of vegetation and landscapes we want, and reducing the hazard of catastrophic wildfire caused by excessive fuel buildup.

The Southeast has a complex fire environment unlike any other in the nation. While fire has long played a critical role in the landscapes across the Southeast, it is becoming increasingly difficult for agencies, organizations, and landowners to plan for and respond effectively to wildfire, while protecting vulnerable communities and providing for firefighter safety. The Southeast leads the nation in the number of annual wildland fire events.

National Fire Mapping

National fire maps offer landscape-scale snapshots of fire occurrence and associated trends such as fuel loading and severity. While these maps tend to lack some resolution when compared with regional and local products, they are critical to understanding the "big picture."

SE Fire Mapping Scoping Survey
-
A thorough scoping process for the SE FireMap project is currently underway, investigating promising remote sensing (RS) products and leading fire tracking systems which may best support the development of this product. To ensure a thorough scoping process, this survey offers a platform for the fire community to share feedback and recommendations directly the project team.
