2020 Fire History polygons of Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks

Description

This coverage represents the SEKI fire history from 1921 through 2020. A seperate database exists that has attribute information based on the common relate item called "gisno". This has now been linked to the WFMI database. 2020 data came from InForm and was manually merged with WFMI data from years prior. There was no integrated dataset of record at the time of publishing. Some of the spatial data is blocky because it originated as a GRASS coverage with 30 meter resolution. Beginning in 1996, the fire history data has been digitally developed in Arc/Info. The resulting smooth line polygon shapefiles depict fires that are 1996 and later. A significant quality control process has increased the accuracy of attributes in the 2002 version and later.
