page is continually evolving

keep checking back

We are bulding a page that will offer links to pertinent reports and documents, continual updates of current information, and examples of ways to customize and use LANDFIRE data and products in practical applications.

In the meantime

See the Application Projects page on this site for reports on specific LANDFIRE projects that were conducted by agreement with The Nature Conservancy, in cooperation with the U.S. Fire Learning Network and cooperating partners and stakeholders. The LANDFIRE National's site Data Products and Applications section is also a valuable reference resource.
