A key deliverable of the SWRA project was the extensive GIS datasets that were compiled and developed. This data is available at no cost from the state and federal agency representatives for the project.

Numerous GIS datasets were compiled, developed and derived during the project. Users are encouraged to read the project final report for a complete description of the datasets and models used to derived them. A summary of the datasets is also provided on this page. The following datasets were developed:

Government Supplied Data

	Initial dispatch locations (fire stations)
	Fire history data from fire reporting systems
	District boundaries
	County boundaries
	Federal land ownership boundaries

Contractor Supplied Data

	Communities/Populated places
	Man made infrastructure (airports, schools, hospitals)
	Land ownership
	Median housing unit dollar value
	Plantations
	Roads
	Smoke impacted areas
	Soils
	Surface Fuels
	Topography (elevation, aspect, slope)
	Vegetation (GAP)
	Weather observation data
	Wildland urban interface

Intermediate Dervied Data

	Canopy cover percent
	Fire Occurrence Areas
	Fuel profiles
	Suppression difficulty rating
	Values impacted rating
	Weather influence zones

Modeled Output Data

	Community threat rating (communities-at-risk)
	Fire Effects Index
	Fire Response Accessibility Index
	Level of Concern Index (wildfire risk)
	Wildland Fire Susceptibility Index (wildfire threat)

In future we hope to have capabilities to download these datasets directly from the SWRA web site. For more information about how to obtain the SWRA GIS datasets please refer to the Contact page.
