File Folder Description
_metadata_RDS-2020-0054-3.html   Metadata file in HTML format containing a description of the content, quality, and other characteristics of the data.
_metadata_RDS-2020-0054-3.xml   Metadata file in Extensible Markup Language (XML) format containing a description of the content, quality, and other characteristics of the data.
_variable_descriptions.csv \Data Comma-separated values file containing a list and description of variables found in all data files.
Firesheds_Alaska.gdb \Data Esri file geodatabase (GDB) containing nested boundaries delineating wildfire transmission to communities in Alaska for monitoring progress towards risk reduction from management investments. The information is used to identify and map the source of risk rather than what is at risk across all lands in Alaska.
Firesheds_CONUS.gdb \Data GDB containing nested boundaries delineating wildfire transmission to communities in the continental United States for monitoring progress towards risk reduction from management investments. The information is used to identify and map the source of risk rather than what is at risk across all lands in the continental United States.
ExposureByFireshed_Alaska.png \Supplements Portable Network Graphic (PNG) file showing relative wildfire transmission to communities across firesheds in Alaska continental United States.
ExposureByFireshed_CONUS.png \Supplements PNG file showing relative wildfire transmission to communities across firesheds in the continental United States.
ExposureBySubfireshed_Alaska.png \Supplements PNG file showing relative wildfire transmission to communities across subfiresheds within firesheds in Alaska.
ExposureBySubfireshed_CONUS.png \Supplements PNG file showing relative wildfire transmission to communities across subfiresheds within firesheds in the continental United States.
Fireshed_Framework.png \Supplements PNG file showing the nested spatial framework for firesheds. Firesheds are the broad scale unit of prioritization, but subfiresheds within them are also prioritized as part of implementation of treatments.
