In particular, data relating to recently burned areas reflect generalized perimeters and represent coarse, preliminary assessments of the fire perimeters, and fire sizes, and may change or not correspond to other officially reported acreage. Areas close to, or inside of the perimeters represented here may or may not have actually burned.

By Individual Fire (area burned in Acres)

  • Threat: Wildland fire threat.

  • Surface Fuels: Surface fuels in the Fire Behavior Prediction System (FBPS). Along with slope and expected fire frequency, fuels are a major component in determining fire threat. For state- and county-wide data on surface fuels, and metadata, see http://frap.cdf.ca.gov/data/frapgisdata/select.asp

  • Fire Threat to Communities: Pre-fire risk to communities defined by FRAP as having 1 house per 20 acres or greater density and within 2400 meters of High, Very High or Extreme threat as determined from fuel and fire occurrence history.

  • Owner: Major land ownership classes.

  • Mortality Zone: Area infested by the Bark Beetle as determined by the USDA Forest Service aerial survey of September, 2003.

  • Vegetation Type (Dominant): CALVEG vegetation types.


All Burned Areas (Acres)

  • Threat by WHR13: Fire threat for major groupings of the California Wildlife Habitat Relationships System (CWHR) as defined by FRAP (all burned acres).

  • WHR13 by Owner: CWHR grouping by major land ownership classes (all burned areas).

  • Erosion Potential (Post Fire) by Owner: Post fire erosion potential rankings by major land ownership classes (all burned areas).

  • Mortality Zone: Area burned or not burned within the zone infested by the Bark Beetle as determined by the USDA Forest Service aerial survey of September, 2003.

  • Vegetation Type (Dominant): CALVEG vegetation types (all burned area).
