Records in FireOccurrence and FirePerimeter include locations and perimeters for wildland fires. Historic perimeters will be entered as they are obtained. Perimeter records after 1984 have corresponding records within the Fire Occurrence dataset. InFORM, Interagency Fire Occurrence Reporting Modules, is comprised of several applications, which together hold and maintain information from the Individual Fire Report (FS-5100-29). Entry of fire data into InFORM is required by the USFS for all wildland fire incidents on National Forest System Lands or National Forest-protected lands as of 2020. FirePerimeter polygons include all burned and unburned areas within wildland fire perimeters, unless otherwise directed. For example, include unburned islands, rocky outcrops, water bodies, and marshlands within a wildland fire perimeter, unless directed otherwise by USFS Line Officers. Multi-part polygons may result for some fires.Prescribed fires are tracked in the Forest Service Activity Tracking System (FACTS) and are not to be included in the FirePerimeter layer. In the event a prescribed fire escapes and is declared a wildfire, then an Individual Wildland Fire Report is required, and the fire perimeter would be included in the FirePerimeter layer for only the area burned after escape.Minimum Mapping Unit: 24 meters at scale 1:24,000 |
