FIA Landcover County Estimates - 2016 (Feature Layer)

This feature class represents forest area estimates (and percent sampling error) by county for the year 2016. The data was generated from the Forest Inventory Analysis (FIA) using the EVALIDator web tool (https://apps.fs.usda.gov/Evalidator/evalidator.jsp). The areas were calculated within county limits using the US Census Bureau's county spatial data (https://www.census.gov/geo/maps-data/data/cbf/cbf_counties.html). Features and attributes of the county layer were adapted to match attributes within the FIA database (FIADB) and features have been generalized by removing vertices to enhance performance. Future iterations of this dataset will be produced using refined methods and higher resolution spatial data. <a href='https://data.fs.usda.gov/geodata/edw/datasets.php?xmlKeyword=FIA+Landcover+County+Estimates' target='_blank' rel='nofollow ugc noopener noreferrer'>Metadata and Downloads</a>

Mean Fraction of Summer Runoff from Forest Service Lands (Map Service)

<div>Available water supply varies greatly across the United States depending on topography, climate, elevation and geology. Forested and mountainous locations, such as national forests, tend to receive more precipitation than adjacent non-forested or low-lying areas. However, contributions of national forest lands to regional streamflow volumes is largely unknown. Using outputs from the Variable Infiltration Capacity hydrologic model, we calculated mean annual and mean summer (July and August) streamflow metrics based on total flow and flow from national forest lands for each 1:100,000 scale National Hydrography Dataset stream reach in the contiguous United States.

National Interagency Fire Occurrence Fifth Edition 1992-2018 (Feature Layer)

<b>Note:</b> <b>This is a large dataset. </b>To download, go to <a href='https://data-usfs.hub.arcgis.com/datasets/usfs::national-interagency-fire-occurrence-fifth-edition-1992-2018-feature-layer' target='_blank' rel='nofollow ugc noopener noreferrer'>ArcGIS Open Data Set</a> and click the download button, and under additional resources select the geodatabase or shapefile option. This data publication contains a spatial database of wildfires that occurred in the United States from 1992 to 2018. It is the fourth update of a publication originally generated to support the national Fire Program Analysis (FPA) system. The wildfire records were acquired from the reporting systems of federal, state, and local fire organizations. The following core data elements were required for records to be included in this data publication: discovery date, final fire size, and a point location at least as precise as a Public Land Survey System (PLSS) section (1-square mile grid). The data were transformed to conform, when possible, to the data standards of the National Wildfire Coordinating Group (NWCG), including an updated wildfire-cause standard (approved August 2020). Basic error-checking was performed and redundant records were identified and removed, to the degree possible. In addition to incorporating data for 2016-2018, some previously unavailable nonfederal wildfire records for the period 1999-2015 were acquired either directly from the state fire services (NH, NJ) or indirectly from an updated National Association of State Foresters database (AR, AZ, CA, CO, FL, HI, ID, IL, OK, SD) and added. The resulting product, referred to as the Fire Program Analysis fire-occurrence database (FPA FOD), includes 2.17 million geo-referenced wildfire records, representing a total of 165 million acres burned during the 27-year period. Identifiers necessary to link the point-based, final-fire-reporting information to published large-fire-perimeter and operational-situation-reporting datasets are included. <div><br /></div><div><a href='https://www.fs.usda.gov/rds/archive/Catalog/RDS-2013-0009.5' target='_blank' rel='nofollow ugc noopener noreferrer'>Additional Information</a><br /></div>

Monitoring Trends in Burn Severity Conterminous United States (Map Service)

Burn severity layers are thematic images depicting severity as unburned to low, low, moderate, high, and increased greenness (increased post-fire vegetation response). The layer may also have a sixth class representing a mask for clouds, shadows, large water bodies, or other features on the landscape that erroneously affect the severity classification. This data has been prepared as part of the Monitoring Trends in Burn Severity (MTBS) project. Due to the lack of comprehensive fire reporting information and quality Landsat imagery, burn severity for all targeted MTBS fires are not available. Additionally, the availability of burn severity data for fires occurring in the current and previous calendar year is variable since these data are currently in production and released on an intermittent basis by the MTBS project. <div><br /></div><div><a href='https://www.mtbs.gov/direct-download' target='_blank' rel='nofollow ugc noopener noreferrer'>Direct Download</a> - https://www.mtbs.gov/direct-download<br /></div><div><a href='https://data.fs.usda.gov/geodata/edw/edw_resources/meta/S_USA.MTBS_BURN_AREA_BOUNDARY.xml' target='_blank' rel='nofollow ugc noopener noreferrer'>MTBS Burn Area Boundary Full Metadata</a> - https://data.fs.usda.gov/geodata/edw/edw_resources/meta/S_USA.MTBS_BURN_AREA_BOUNDARY.xml</div><div><a href='https://data.fs.usda.gov/geodata/edw/edw_resources/meta/S_USA.MTBS_FIRE_OCCURRENCE_PT.xml' target='_blank' rel='nofollow ugc noopener noreferrer'>MTBS Fire Occurrence Point Full Metadata</a> - https://data.fs.usda.gov/geodata/edw/edw_resources/meta/S_USA.MTBS_FIRE_OCCURRENCE_PT.xml<br /></div><div><br /></div><div><a href='https://data.fs.usda.gov/geodata/edw/datasets.php?xmlKeyword=MTBS' target='_blank' rel='nofollow ugc noopener noreferrer'>FS Geodata Clearinghouse Downloads Page</a> - https://data.fs.usda.gov/geodata/edw/datasets.php?xmlKeyword=MTBS<br /></div>

Forest Common Names (Feature Layer)

This dataset contains the common names of the national forests and grasslands and their respective FS WWW URL information that is used for both display of the national forest and national grassland boundaries on any map product and for dynamic interactivity of the map. This dataset exhibits the following characteristics: 1. Granularity of the polygon features - The spatial extent of the national forests and the grasslands match the way the agency would like to communicate with the public. 2. Preferred /Common Name of the National Forest Units - The common names of the national forest and grassland match the preferred name column that is present in the common names decision table maintained by the FS Office of Communication. 3. Hyperlinks to FS WWW Home page - This column contains the national forest and their respective FS WWW URL information. This URL could be used on any interactive map applications to link users directly to a forest's home page. Data Source - This dataset is derived from the following FS ALP (Automated Lands Program) Land Status Records System authoritative data sources: 1. Administrative Forest Boundaries 2. Proclaimed Forest Boundaries 3. Ranger District Boundaries 4. National Grassland Areas. The common names decision table maintained by the FS Office of Communication contains the common name and its respective Land Status Records System authoritative data source to be used for building the spatial polygon. The spatial polygons for every feature in this dataset comes from one or more authoritative data sources listed above. The process to create the common names dataset is reusing the already existing ALP names from the data sources listed above.

Wildland Urban Interface: 2020 (Map Service)

<span style='font-family:&quot;Avenir Next W01&quot;, &quot;Avenir Next W00&quot;, &quot;Avenir Next&quot;, Avenir, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif; font-size:16px;'>The Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI) is the area where houses meet or intermingle with undeveloped wildland vegetation. This makes the WUI a focal area for human-environment conflicts such as wildland fires, habitat fragmentation, invasive species, and biodiversity decline. Using geographic information systems (GIS), we integrated U.S. Census and USGS National Land Cover Data, to map the Federal Register definition of WUI (Federal Register 66:751, 2001) for the conterminous United States from 1990-2020. These data are useful within a GIS for mapping and analysis at national, state, and local levels. Data are available as a geodatabase and include information such as housing densities for 1990, 2000, 2010, and 2020; wildland vegetation percentages for 1992, 2001, 2011, and 2019; as well as WUI classes in 1990, 2000, 2010, and 2020.This WUI feature class is separate from the WUI datasets maintained by individual forest unites, and it is not the authoritative source data of WUI for forest units.
