Custom Lists

Custom Lists are filtered lists you can create in the Workspace to track your issues, tasks, or reports. They are located under the My Lists tab in Asset Operations and are not visible or shareable with other groups or users. With Custom Lists, you can create and save your own filters and columns. Using these saved settings, your list will always display the most current information. Unlike the existing lists in Asset Operations, you won’t need to reapply filters each time.

NFDRS v4 Rollout Workshop Curriculum

Attention: The content on this page is sourced from the National Wildfire Coordinating Group’s Fire Danger Subcommittee and their curriculum for the Geographic Area Rollout Workshops presented in 2018-2020 to transition to the use of NFDRSv4. At the time, NFDRSv4 was referred to as NFDRS2016. Some content will also refer to the Weather Information Management System (WIMS), which has been replaced by FEMS. The explanations in this content for the science behind and the mechanisms within the NFDRS are current and dependable, despite these possible distractions.

FireFamilyPlus

FireFamilyPlus (FFP), an agency independent Windows application is a primary tool in the fire behavior/fire danger suite of programs which share data and models that are used in a variety of environments to address a range of business needs. FFP supports the spectrum of fire weather/fire danger/fire climate/fire occurrence analysis tools required by fire managers to successfully use the National Fire Danger Rating System (NFDRS). NFDRS is mandated for use in fire preparedness by all Federal and most State agencies.
