Technology Transfer

  • California Fire Planning and Mapping ...an internet based mapping tool designed to access online maps of current fire locations and perimeters in California. Using a standard web browser, the user can locate, download and/or print this information.


  • GeoMac ...an internet based mapping tool to access online maps of current fire locations and perimeters in the contiguous 48 States and Alaska.


  • Downloads ... the Fire Applications Support website provides you with Application Information, TechNotes, Frequently Asked Questions and a Distribution page where manuals, software, etc. may be downloaded.


  • I-Suite ... the I-Suite application consists of the Incident Resource Status System (IRSS), Incident Cost Accounting and Reporting System (ICARS), Incident Time System (ITS) and the Incident Action Plan (IAP). Together, these applications are called the "I-Suite" (IRSS, ICARS, ITS, IAP = I-Suite). These applications are integrated, which means that they have a similar user interface, and share a common database. Data need only be entered once to be available to all the applications. Each application can still be used independently.


  • Pacific Southwest Research Station FireMapper Project ... based on modern night-vision technology, the FireMapper is designed to accurately map fire intensity and provide fire intelligence to improve firefighter safety, make fire fighting more effective, and reduce wildfire damage to natural resources and society.


  • WFSA (Wildland Fire Situation Analysis) ...a valuable tool to work through the documentation of the suppression decisions made by the Agency Administrator. It can be used as a decision support tool – it does not provide answers.
