Metadata elements shown with blue text are defined in the Federal Geographic Data Committee's (FGDC) Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata (CSDGM). Elements shown with green text are defined in the ESRI Profile of the CSDGM. Elements shown with a green asterisk (*) will be automatically updated by ArcCatalog. ArcCatalog adds hints indicating which FGDC elements are mandatory; these are shown with gray text.
Initial Start Locations of fires reported into NIFMID by the Pendleton Interagency Dispatch Center, North East Oregon Dispatch Center, or the Malheur NF Dispatch Center.
Shows spatial location of Points where fires start. Point of origin for wildfires, escaped fires, and prescribed natural fires.

Attibutes where checked against valid values by joining feature attribute tables to external Databases to check for inconsistances. Checks for key fields where completed by testing the frequency of the data.
Full outer joins were completed against lookup values for features.
All fires less than 100 acres and start locations for larger fires are shown in this coverage to the effect that fire locations where given to the Umatilla GIS for input. The coverage is completed each year for each year to follow.

Pathfinder office gps files, other venders gps files, ascii text files from kcfast database with lat and longs, heads up digitising using DRGS.
Pathfinder office gps files, other venders gps files, ascii text files of lat and long coords. from kcfast, heads up digitising using DRGS. Year update process is to pull new locations from KCFAST database. You need to have a WIMS username and password. Go to http://famweb.nwcg.gov/ and select KCFAST, Fire, Fire Reports. Put in addmin unit. i.e. 0614, begin year and end year. Then select corporate GIS for Administration unit. The report will go to a FTP site and retrieve from there. Take text file report and add column headings by inserting a new text line at start of file. Project file using ArcCatalog assuming a geographic project with a NAD83 Datum from North America. Then reproject to local projection. Match PAT table and append to existing coverage.

Added in 2004 year fire start locations. All locations were derived from the data in the KCFast database . All locations were derived from the Latitude and Longitude stored in the database for the 2004 fires. All LL were assumed to be in NAD83 Geographic and then reprojected to the local projection.

Metadata imported.
feature set was created by merging the 3 forest coverages of the Blue mountains. Feature set was made to match structurally the R6 Fire Mangement standard for Fire History Start Points. This layer then was used to update the R6 SDE Fire History Starts layer. This feature set mimics the Region 6 standard in a person geodatabase format
