The rich suite of LANDFIRE products can be used for large landscape evaluation, management, budgeting, and planning, in both fire and non-fire applications. The Nature Conservancy's LANDFIRE team has develped an interactive resource, the "Web-Hosted Application Map," or WHAM!, that provides thumbnail sketches of 150+ applications and links to related resources. In addition to the online map (click here), we offer links to some of the projects that are featured, below.
We are updating the applications and adding new ones. Some of the links below may no longer be active. Thank you for your patience during this construction project. -- The TNC-LANDFIRE team.
