Workshop Objectives:
The SE FireMap is a fire mapping system that uses remote sensing to track prescribed fire and wildfire activity throughout the southeast. A beta version of the SE FireMap was released in early 2021 and an expanded SE FireMap 2.0 will be released by Spring 2025. SE FireMap 2.0 will provide annually updated information to increase the effectiveness of fire planning and conservation practices.
During this webinar, we walked through SE FireMap 1.0, discussed the development of SE FireMap 2.0, and outlined ways users can provide input on its development. Q&A followed a brief presentation. The SE FireMap was developed with funding from USDA-NRCS.
