description: This map contains layer groups for each year from 2000 to 2009. Within each group is a point and polygon featureclass.
The point represents the centroid of the fire and is used for display at small scales (zoomed way out) and fire labeling.
The polygon featureclass contains the actual fire perimeters as reported to GeoMAC. The centroids were derived from the polygon
data.; abstract: The Geospatial Multi-Agency Coordination Group, or GeoMAC, is an internet-based mapping tool originally designed
for fire managers to access online maps of current fire locations and perimeters in the conterminous 48 states and Alaska.
Perimeters are submitted to GeoMAC by field offices and then posted to an FTP site for downloading. This file contains all
fire perimeters that were submitted to GeoMAC ( http://www.geomac.gov/ ) by field offices for the past several years. The
projection is geographic and the datum is NAD83.Geoscientific Information (Geoscience)wildland fire2009 FiresFire Centroids
