The MWRAfuelscape consists of geospatial data layers representing surface fuel model, canopy base height, canopy bulk density, and topography characteristics (slope, aspect, elevation). The fuelscape was developed from LANDFIRE Remap 2016 30-m raster data and edited based on feedback from interagency fuels and fire staffacross Montana. Additionally, the fuelscape was updated using RAVG, MTBS, and fire perimeter datasets where available to account for wildfire disturbances that occurred between 2017 and 2019. The fuelscape was also updated with FACTS/NFPORS treatment data and DNRC treatment data, provided by MT DNRC staff.<\/span><\/span><\/p>

Note: LANDFIRE disturbance records reported a large fire perimeter (approximately 30,000 acres) in the Breckenridge, CO area from 2015. During the fuelscape calibration workshop, this was identified as an error in the FACTS database carried forward in LANDFIRE Remap. This record was removed from the fuel disturbance grid to prevent misrepresentation of fuel reduction within the original treatment polygon.<\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>", "summary": "The purpose of the State of Montana Wildfire Risk Assessment (MWRA) is to provide foundational information about wildfire hazard and risk to highly valued resources and assets across the assessment area.
