Resource Abstract:
- description: The Monitoring Trends in Burn Severity (MTBS) project assesses the frequency, extent, and magnitude (size and
severity) of all large wildland fires (includes wildfire, wildland fire use, and prescribed fire) in the conterminous United
States (CONUS), Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico for the period of 1984 through 2010. 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 currently inventoried and mappable MTBS fires occurring between calendar
year 1984 and 2010 for the continental United States, Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico.; abstract: The Monitoring Trends in
