LANDFIRE is the first complete, nationally consistent collection of more than 25 geospatial layers, databases, and ecological models at a 30-meter resolution that describe disturbance, vegetation, fire, and fuel characteristics. Because fires do not stop at ownership borders, LANDFIRE products by design support cross-boundary planning, management, and operations across all lands of the conterminous United States (CONUS), Alaska, Hawaii, and insular areas.
