Wildfire Fire Management Data 
GeoMAC Wildland Fire Support
The Geospatial Multi-agency Coordination Group (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. Using a standard web browser, fire personnel can download this information to pinpoint the affected areas. The tool is now available to the public.

This project developed an Internet application based on ArcIMS and ArcSDE that provides decision support for prioritizing the use of wildfire suppression resources and critical information for public and firefighter safety, as outlined in the ESRI ArcUser on-line article "GIS Provides Critical Support for Wildfire Response."
