UPDATED: HMS 2007-06-26; Thermal MODIS: 2007-06-27 1539 (GMT); Fire Perimeters 2007-06-27; Sit Reports 2007-06-26

Perimeters are collected in the field by a variety of means, including infrared flights, and by using a GPS unit to map the perimeter. Please NOTE: GeoMAC only displays perimeter data as they are submitted by field offices. Since data are not received for all fires, you may not be able to view perimeters for every fire.

A perimeter is displayed in one of two ways depending upon how old it is. Once a perimeter is more than two days old, or is replaced by a more current perimeter, it is displayed in blue-gray in the Past 2007 Perimeters layer. Also, perimeters are usually no longer collected in the field once a fire is no longer growing in size and is mostly contained.

****REMINDER**** Every fire has the ability to be catastrophic. The wildland fire management environment has profoundly changed. Growing numbers of communities, across the nation, are experiencing longer fire seasons; more frequent, bigger, and more severe, fires are a real threat. Be careful with all campfires and equipment.

"I am a firm believer in the people. If given the truth, they can be depended upon to meet any national crisis. The great point is to bring them the real facts, and beer." --Abraham Lincoln
