Description

This dataset provides an integrated Wildfire Event Dataset (iWED version 1) for wildfire events of 100 ha or more in area from 1992 to 2021 for the continental US. Fire information was compiled from a variety of state, regional, and federal-level agencies responsible for filing and archiving incident level reports. Additional information was obtained from the Monitoring Trends in Burn Severity (MTBS) program initiated in the mid-2000s. MTBS is being continuously updated as new satellite remote sensing data are collected and processed. The data are provided in comma separated values (CSV) format.
