A collection of information on fire mapping efforts across the Southeastern U.S. and elsewhere in the U.S., with short-term emphasis on the SE FireMap, a new effort funded by USDA's Natural Resources Conservation Service to 1) investigate fire mapping efforts to date in the U.S. and learn from previous efforts while exploring new or emerging technologies and 2) develop a multi-state fire map for the SE U.S. by 2023 to be used in future decision-support regarding both regional prescribed burn efforts and wildfire risk management.

The U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service has assumed a leadership role in the use of fire to maintain and support healthy ecosystems. The Service has traditionally led DOI agencies in using prescribed fire to reduce dangerously overgrown vegetation, known as "hazardous fuels," keeping lands in good condition while accomplishing the most with the least funding.

Accurately tracking and understanding wildland fire patterns across the Southeastern U.S. is a critical need identified by a consortium of conservation partners. The SE FireMap is a new product developed in 2020-21 to meet these needs, and funded by the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service's Working Lands for Wildlife program under an agreement with the U.S. Endowment for Forestry and Communities.
