Web Fire Mapper: The NASA FIRMS Web Fire Mapper is now live, with VIIRS 375m data as well as MODIS. The two data sets have good agreement for hotspot detection, but the improved spatial resolution of the 375m data provides a greater response over fires of relatively small areas and provides improved mapping of large fire perimeters.

Wildland Fire Decision Support System (WFDSS): An integrated system that assists fire managers and analysts in making strategic and tactical decisions for fire incidents and incident reporting. Link

Wildland Fire Emissions Information System (WFEIS): The Wildland Fire Emissions Information System (WFEIS) is a web-based tool that provides users a simple interface for computing wildland fire emissions across CONUS and Alaska at landscape to regional scales (1-km spatial resolution). Link

Wildland Fire Management Research, Development & Application: The RD&A Program sponsors and guides the development and application of wildland scientific knowledge; develops decision support tools; and provides science application services to the interagency wildland fire community. Link

WindNinja: WindNinja is a computer program that computes spatially varying wind fields for wildland fire and other applications requiring high resolution wind prediction in complex terrain. Link

WWETAC Threat Mapper: Online system for detecting, mapping, and assessing wildland threats. Link
