In this document I will describe several methods for mapping wildland fires from a fixed wing platform in a way that minimizes flight time over the fire. This willreduce fuel cost and hazard exposure as well as make aerial mapped perimeters more accurate. Mapping is done on the ground in a...
From comments on my previous post on the Web Fire Mapper come two more links to fire-related mapping sites: –The Wildfire Information Portal (from Pitney-Bowes and the San Bernardino Sun) uses a Virtual Earth Interface to display wildfire-related layers with the transparency adjustable using ...

We confronted the problems and paradoxes ofreal-timemapping of the fires as we juggled the synchronization of their layers–of landscape, or what counts as it today, of wind, particulate matter, and fire-perimeters, “active perimeters,” or what were once, more optimistically, called “rims...
