  1. Finding GIS Data for Incident Response Sarah Hartsburg GIS Technician Sundance Consulting, Inc. for NPS Fire GIS sarah_hartsburg@contractor.nps.gov

  2. Module Objectives • Describe and provide a list of data sources for wildland fire incident response • Discuss data drive and overview of data on the drive • Demonstrate workflow for preparing to create a quick map using the data drive

  3. Data Sources for Wildland Fire Incident Response Connected Disconnected Pre-assembled data stored on local drives • Websites which allow for data to be downloaded • Internet map services • Pre-assembled data on local drives

  4. Data Sources for Connected Environments- Data Download Sites • USGS Rapid Data Delivery Site (RDDS): http://firedata.cr.usgs.gov/ • NRCS Geospatial Data Gateway: http://datagateway.nrcs.usda.gov/ • NIFC FTP site: ftp://ftp.nifc.gov/BASE_INFO/Statewide_GIS_Data/ • USTopo: http://nationalmap.gov/ustopo/index.html • FSTopo – USFS created Topo Maps: http://fsgeodata.fs.fed.us/rastergateway/states-regions/states.php

  5. Data Sources for Connected Environments- Internet Map Services • MODIS Active Fire Mapping site: http://activefiremaps.fs.fed.us/index.php • USDA National Agricultural Imagery Program (NAIP): http://gis.apfo.usda.gov/ArcGIS/rest/services/NAIP • USTopo: http://basemap.nationalmap.gov/ArcGIS/rest/services/USGSTopo/MapServer • USGS Basemap services: http://basemap.nationalmap.gov/ArcGIS/rest/services/

  7. Base Data - Pre-assembled Data Drives • DEMs • Internet Layer Files • Orthoimagery • Topo Maps • Vector Data • Google Earth Files • Other Maps

  8. Other Materials - Pre-assembled Data Drives In addition to base data the data drives also include: • Template incident folder • Sample incident maps • Training materials and job aids • ArcGIS software and utilities

  9. Template Incident Folder

  10. Demo – Using the Data Drive

  11. Copy the Template Incident Folder to Your Local Hard Drive and Re-name It

  12. In the Incident Folder, open the Projects Folder and Double click to open the Start.mxd

  13. Copy Any Imagery or Other Base Data to Your Incident Folder
