Geospatial Assessment and Application of Burn Severity Data training webinar
We have reached participant capacity for this training.
Thank you for your interest!
When: May 2 - 5, 2011
Topics Covered: An overview, discussion and geospatial training for three fire mapping programs:
- BAER (Burned Area Emergency Response) Imagery Support
- RAVG (Rapid Assessment of Vegetation Condition after Wildfire)
- MTBS (Monitoring Trends in Burn Severity)
This training is intended to help resource managers become familiarized with the characteristics and uses of post-fire imagery. There are four specific objectives of this training:
- To promote the awareness and use of satellite imagery to provide timely burn severity products;
- To promote awareness of how burned severity products are derived;
- To describe methods and techniques to edit and improve these data;
- To suggest several ways these data can be used.
Training Course Materials:
Although registrants may participate in any or all sessions listed below, we suggest attending on Monday, May 2nd for a review of the three fire mapping programs and then attending subsequent sessions based on the specific training that is most applicable to your type of job.
