The fire characteristics chart is a graphical method of presenting primary surface or crown fire behavior characteristics or U.S. National Fire Danger Rating (NFDRS) indices. It is a stand-alone component of the BehavePlus fire modeling system.
The Fire Effects Information System is an online collection of reviews of the scientific literature about fire effects on plants and animals and about fire regimes of plant communities in the United States.
FMSF is a place to run wildland fire behavior and effects models for use within other systems. It brings improved performance, consistent data, and faster analysis results.
The Fire Weather Alert System (FWAS) monitors nearby weather observations and forecasts to warn firefighters of dangerous incoming weather. It also provides convenient map-based access to fire-specific weather information.
FireBGCv2 is a computer modeling program and platform that mechanistically simulates fire, vegetation, climate, and fuels dynamics across multiple space and time scales.
FireFamily+ (FF+) is a software package used to calculate fuel moistures and indices from the US National Fire Danger Rating System (NFDRS).
FIREMON: Fire Effects Monitoring and Inventory System is a plot level sampling system designed to characterize changes in ecosystem attributes over time. The FIREMON software application has been replaced by the FFI application.
FIRESEV is a fire severity mapping system for real time fire management application and long-term planning.
FireWorks is an educational program about the science of wildland fire, designed for students in grades 1-12. The program consists of a curriculum and a trunk of materials, including laboratory equipment, specimens, and kits of specialized materials for teachers.
FlamMap is a fire analysis desktop application that can simulate potential fire behavior characteristics, fire growth and spread, and conditional burn probabilities under constant environmental conditions.
FOFEM (the First Order Fire Effects Model) is a desktop software application for predicting tree mortality, fuel consumption, smoke production, and soil heating caused by prescribed fire or wildfire. SpatialFOFEM is a spatial implementation of FOFEM.
The ForSys Planning System is a decision support tool that simulates land management scenarios and measures outcomes at a range of scales.
FSim simulates the growth and behavior of hundreds of thousands of fire events for risk analysis across large land areas using geospatial data on historical fire occurrence, weather, terrain, and fuel conditions.
The Fuel Treatment Effectiveness Monitoring (FTEM) application collects data that documents the effectiveness of fuel treatments on wildland fire behavior when a wildland fire intersects with a previously applied hazardous fuels reduction treatment.
FuelCalc is a desktop software application for determining changes in surface and crown fuel loading after thinning, pruning, piling and/or prescribed fire.
ICS-209-PLUS is a research-ready compilation of all-hazards operational data 1999-2020. These situation-reporting data can be used to relate large-fire activity to weather, fuel treatment activities, firefighting response, and a range of socioeconomic impacts.
The Interagency Fuel Treatment Decision Support System (IFTDSS) is a web-based application designed to make fuel treatment planning and analysis more efficient and effective.
Spatial Fire Planning provides an intuitive and robust method of developing, storing, and delivering Land, Resource and Fire Management plan direction in a spatial platform. Spatial Fire Planning data is used in the Wildland Fire Decision Support System (WFDSS) to provide direction and intent for strategic planning and decision-making.
This multi-partner program produces consistent, comprehensive, geospatial data and databases that describe vegetation, wildland fuel, and fire regimes across the United States and insular areas.
The National Fire Danger Rating System (NFDRS) uses weather, fuels, and fire occurrence data to calculate fire danger for a given area. In the United States, the NFDRS has been used to support operational fire decision making for the last 50 years.
Snag Hazard is a map that classifies forested areas into categories of low, moderate, high, or extreme snag hazard based on snag density (number of dead trees/acre) and height.
The Photoload method provides quick, accurate assessments of surface fuel loading. It can be used as an alternative to the planar intersect, or Brown's transect, method.
This tool provides methods to measure axial resin ducts in annual tree rings. These methods provide the necessary protocols for consistent terminology and quantification of xylem resin ducts.
The RMRS Rocky Mountain Center developed a comprehensive georeferenced model for predicting wildfire starts out to 7 days based on forecast weather and data on vegetation cover and recent drought history.
RiskMonitor is a framework that helps managers identify the most effective treatment strategies to reduce wildfire risk and monitor progress toward risk reduction goals.
The Safe Separation Distance Evaluator (SSDE) tool uses an adaptive algorithm to calculate the Safe Separation Distance (SSD) needed to identify firefighter safety zones.
The TreeMap dataset is a spatial model of the trees in continental U.S. forests. It provides detailed spatial information on forest characteristics.
U.S. Wildfires is a spatial database of wildfire records for the period 1992-2020 from federal, state, and local wildfire reporting systems.
The wildfire hazard potential (WHP) map is a raster geospatial product that can help to inform evaluations of wildfire hazard or prioritization of fuels management needs across very large landscapes.
Wildfire Risk to Communities is a free, easy-to-use website with interactive maps, charts, and resources to help communities understand, explore, and reduce wildfire risk.
WildfireSAFE was designed to increase firefighter and fire manager situation awareness and enhance risk mitigation planning in wildland fire operations.
WFDSS is currently the only web-based application that allows interagency and interdepartmental fire staff to access a one-stop suite of decision support tools while being in compliance with policy, guidance, and documentation requirements.
