Policies by Rosanne Hessmiller, last updated: Mar 16, 2021 02:50 PM: Principles, policies, and laws from legislatures and agencies provide a structured approach to managing and regulating wildland fire and smoke emissions. However, these are implemented within jurisdictions and at scales that create a patchwork across large landscapes and can impede efforts to manage for wildfire risk and ecological restoration of fire-dependent ecosystems. First, it is important to know and understand what these policies and regulations require. Secondly, we must work collaboratively to address situations where fire management is inadvertently suppressed or eliminated across natural landscapes.

Policies Collection by Web Editor, last updated: Mar 16, 2021 02:50 PM: Principles, policies, and laws from legislatures and agencies provide a structured approach to managing and regulating wildland fire and smoke emissions, however some can also impede the use of prescribed burn management.

Wildfire by Rosanne Hessmiller, last updated: Mar 16, 2021 02:50 PM: The Southeast has a complex fire environment unlike any other in the nation. While fire has long played a critical role in the landscapes across the Southeast, it is becoming increasingly difficult for agencies, organizations, and landowners to plan for and respond effectively to wildfire, while protecting vulnerable communities and providing for firefighter safety. The Southeast leads the nation in the number of annual wildland fire events.

Wildfire Collection by Web Editor, last updated: Mar 16, 2021 02:50 PM: The Southeast leads the nation in the number of annual wildland fire events but also has more prescribed (planned) burns than any other region. While fire has long played a critical role in the landscapes across the Southeast, it is becoming increasingly difficult for agencies, organizations, and landowners to plan for and respond effectively to wildfire, while protecting vulnerable communities and providing for firefighter safety.

SE Fire Mapping Scoping Survey by Rosanne Hessmiller, last updated: Mar 14, 2021 11:52 AM: A thorough scoping process for the SE FireMap project is currently underway, investigating promising remote sensing (RS) products and leading fire tracking systems which may best support the development of this product. To ensure a thorough scoping process, this survey offers a platform for the fire community to share feedback and recommendations directly the project team.

Contribute by Web Editor, last updated: Mar 14, 2021 11:52 AM: The SE FireMap will serve as a critical decision support tool for the fire community. As such, engaging a diverse group of stakeholders for feedback on use-cases, design preferences and other recommendations has been identified as a key element to vet and validate the project’s scoping phase.
