An example map of fire perimeters and fire active fronts in California. The map was created using the fire event data suite (FEDS) as of the Suomi-NPP afternoon overpass (~1:30 pm local time) of Sep 8, 2020. The background is the Aqua MODIS Corrected Reflectance Imagery (true color)...
We compared dNBR, relative dNBR, and estimated fractional cover with the field data to see which map product best represented the measured ground conditions. Preliminary results suggest that the relative dNBR is an improvement on the dNBR, but that the fractiona cover estimates have the highest ...
In response to the needs of local fire managers, we developed a map of wildfire hazard for La Plata County in southwestern Colorado, USA. Our measure of fire hazard had two components: (i) the probability, should fire occur under dry weather conditions, that fire behavior will be extreme, ...
