FRAMES: Technology in Support of Wildland Fire Research and Management

"Information needed to support fire management will be developed through an integrated interagency fire science program. Scientific results must be made available to managers in a timely manner and must be used in the development of land management plans, fire management plans, and implementation plans." [National Fire & Aviation Executive Board, Task Group Briefing Paper #1 (September 2004)]
