Reference feature layer indicating the location of National Park Units located in the Allegheny Fire Management Zone. Used in the 2022 Veterans Fire Corps Storymap. NERI Fire Staff provide fire related assistance to all parks within the Allegheny FMZ regardless of wildfire of fuels treatment occurrence.

This layer represents polygon coverage of Fire Management Zones across the entire State of Victoria, generally on public land. The Fire Management Zone is an area of land which provides a framework for future fuel management programs and whether fire is suitable for managing public land to provide asset protection, bushfire moderation, landscape management or planned burn exclusion. Dataset last updated 20 October 2023 with changes in the Port Phillip region suppied by Frazer Wilson. Dataset last updated 10 September 2021 with changes to regional zoning in the Hume Region (per K.Nolan). Dataset last updated 01 July 2020 with changes to regional zoning from the statewide Strategic Bushfire Management Planning process 2017-2019. Dataset last updated 20 April 2017 with changes from WCBRL (per A Boak). Dataset updated 30 Jan 2017 with changes from ECBRL (per F Wilson). Dataset updated 19 August 2016 with changes from MMGBRL (per D Prior).

In the SBMP, Fire Management Zones are identified as a subset of BPAs where measurable fuel management treatments are applied. The location and alignment of these zones reflect the risk of bushfires starting and spreading, and impacting on life, property and other assets. The zones established include Asset Protection Zones, Strategic Firefighting Advantage Zones, Land Management Zones and Rural Land Management Zones. The widths and locations of the Zones shown on this map are indicative and the actual widths and location will be determined in consideration of the ACT Fire Management Standards and operational requirements, through the development of Regional Fire Management Plans and Bushfire Operational Plans (including Farm Firewise). Chapter 11 of the SBMP details considerations used in determining the location and extent of Asset Protection Zones adjacent to new and established urban areas. Fire Management Zoning maps will be reviewed as required to reflect significant changes, which may include unplanned bushfires or changes to the location or extent of assets.

The National Park Service (NPS) requests burn severity assessments through an agreement with the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) to be completed by analysts with the Monitoring Trends in Burn Severity (MTBS) Program. The MTBS Program assesses the frequency, extent, and magnitude (size and severity) of all large wildland fires (wildfires and prescribed fires) in the conterminous United States (CONUS), Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico for the period 1984 and beyond. All fires reported as greater than 1,000 acres in the western U.S. and greater than 500 acres in the eastern U.S. are mapped across all ownerships. MTBS produces a series of geospatial and tabular data for analysis at a range of spatial, temporal, and thematic scales and are intended to meet a variety of information needs that require consistent data about fire effects through space and time. This map layer is a vector point shapefile of the location of all NPS-requested burn severity fires, occurring during calendar year 1984 and 2024 for CONUS, Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico. Fires omitted from this mapped inventory are those where suitable satellite imagery was not available, or fires were not discernable from available imagery. Assessments requested by the NPS may not meet the size criteria, but otherwise adhere to all procedural and quality standards held by the MTBS Program.

Geotiff Images of fire affected areas in Nitmiluk National Park for the year 2014 based on the NASA Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS). These Images are clipped from geotiff images of fire affected areas in far northern Australia available from North Australian Fire Information (NAFI) website. The images have a resolution of 250 m (pixel size) and each burnt pixel is tagged with the month that covers the largest part of the date interval in which the burnt pixel was detected. These data cover Kakadu National Park, but are part of a larger data set that extends across far northern WA down to 21 degrees S, across the entire NT (down to 26 degrees S) and all of Qld (down to 29 degrees S). The NAFI mapping covers the years 2000 to present and since 2012, the mapping also includes northern SA down to 29 degrees S. Mapping landscapes north of 20 degrees S in WA, NT and Qld has been validated by aerial and on-ground transects across northern Australia.
