Wildfire Suppression Difficulty Index (SDI) 97th Percentile is a rating of relative difficulty in performing fire control work under regionally appropriate fuel moisture and 15 mph uphill winds (@ 20 ft). SDI factors in topography, fuels, expected fire behavior under prevailing conditions, fireline production rates in various fuel types with and without heavy equipment, and access via roads, trails, or cross-country travel. SDI does not account for standing snags or other overhead hazards to firefighters, so it is not a firefighter hazard map. It is only showing in relative terms where it is harder or easier to perform suppression work.<\/SPAN><\/P><\/DIV><\/DIV><\/DIV>", "summary": "Wildfire Suppression Difficulty Index (SDI) provides a spatial summary of \u201cwatch out\u201d situations as well as areas with reduced risk to fire responders that can be used to facilitate strategic and tactical fire management decisions.", "title": "RMRS_Wildfire_Suppression_Difficulty_Index_97thPercentile", "tags": [ "biota", "environment" ], "type": "Image Service", "typeKeywords": [ "ArcGIS Server", "Data", "Image Service", "Service" ], "thumbnail": "", "url": "", "minScale": 150000000, "maxScale": 5000, "spatialReference": "WGS_1984_Web_Mercator_Auxiliary_Sphere", "accessInformation": "USFS Chief Information Office, Enterprise Data Warehouse", "licenseInfo": "
