Presenter: Randy Swaty, The Nature Conservancy - LANDFIRE team
LANDFIRE is a multi-partner programed aimed at characterizing vegetation, fire and fuel characteristics for the United States. Many of the datasets build upon one another, making them easy to work with and adapt for local use. In this webinar, Randy Swaty of The Nature Conservancy’s LANDFIRE team explored the pre-settlement vegetation and fire regimes of the Northeastern U.S. as modeled and mapped by LANDFIRE. This work is enabled by the Biophysical Settings models and descriptions, which Randy described. There was also a “call to action” as LANDFIRE aimed to update and improve these bundles over the next year.
