Description: Version Information:The data is updated yearly with fire perimeters from the previous fire season.Firep21_1 was released in April 2022. Three hundred seventy-two wildfires from the 2021 fire season were added to the database (21 from BLM, 223 from CAL FIRE, 3 from DOD, 40 from LRA, 15 from NPS, 66 from USFS, 2 from BIA, and 2 from USFW). The following fires were identified as meeting our collection criteria, but are not included in this version and will hopefully be added in the next update: Dotta (part of Beckwourth Complex), Greenhorn, Hartman, Lone Rock, Union, and Nelson. The 1933 Griffith Park fire, 2018 Bridal fire, 2020 Kare fire, 2020 Green fire, 2020 Indian fire, 2020 Tripp fire, 2020 Apple fire, and the 2020 Gulch fire were added. A duplicated 1912 fire was removed, 31 perimeters were replaced with more accurate perimeters, and 6 perimeters’ attributes were adjusted (if you would like a full briefing on these adjustments please contact).________________________________________________________________CAL FIRE (including contract counties), USDA Forest Service Region 5, USDI Bureau of Land Management & National Park Service, and other agencies jointly maintain a comprehensive fire perimeter GIS layer for public and private lands throughout the state. The data covers fires back to 1878. Current criteria for data collection are as follows:CAL FIRE (including contract counties) submit perimeters ≥10 acres in timber, ≥50 acres in brush, or ≥300 acres in grass, or damaged/ destroyed ≥3 residential or commercial structures, or caused ≥1 fatality.All cooperating agencies submit perimeters ≥10 acres. ________________________________________________________________________________Discrepancies between wildfire perimeter data and Redbook Large Damaging FiresLarge Damaging fires in California were first defined by the 1979 Redbook. The definition of “Large Damaging” fires used by CAL FIRE has changed over time and differs from the definition initially used when compiling this digital Fire Perimeter data. In contrast, the definition of fires whose perimeter should be collected has changed once in the approximately 30 years the data has been in existence. Below are descriptions of changes in data collection criteria used when compiling these two datasets. To facilitate comparison, this meta data includes a summary, by year of fires in the Redbook that do not appear in this fire perimeter dataset. It is followed by an enumeration of each “Redbook” fire missing from the spatial data. Wildfire Perimeter criteria~1991: 10 acres timber, 30 acres brush, 300 acres grass, damages or destroys three residence or one commercial structure or $300,000 damage ~2010: 1991 criteria but the monetary criteria, the differentiation of structure type and the use of damages were all removedRedbook Fire data criteria1979 - Fires of a minimum of 300 acres that burn at least: 30 acres timber, 300 acres brush, 1500 acres woodland or grass1981 - 1979 criteria plus fires that took 3000 hrs of CDF personnel time to suppress1992 - 1981 criteria plus 1500 acres ag products, or destroys three residence or one commercial structure or $300,000 damage1993 - 1992 criteria but “three or more structures destroyed” replaces “destroys three residence or one commercial structure” and the 3000 hrs of CDF personnel time to suppress is removed2008 - simply 300 acres and larger--------------------------------Year and Number of missing Large Damaging Fires for that yearYear# of Missing “Redbook” Fires19792219801319811519826198331984201985521986121987561988231989819909199121992161993171994221995919961519979199810199972000420015200216200352004220051200611200732008432009320102201102012420132201472015102016220171120186Total483---------------------------------Enumeration of fires in the Redbook that are missing from Fire Perimeter data1979-Sylvandale (HUU), Kiefer (AEU), Taylor(TUU), Parker#2(TCU), PGE#10, Crocker(SLU), Silver Spur (SLU), Parkhill (SLU), Tar Springs #2 (SLU), Langdon (SCU), Truelson (RRU), Bautista (RRU), Crocker (SLU), Spanish Ranch (SLU), Parkhill (SLU), Oak Springs(BDU), Ruddell (BDF), Santa Ana (BDU), Asst. #61 (MVU), Bernardo (MVU), Otay #20 1980– Lightning series (SKU), Lavida (RRU), Mission Creek (RRU), Horse (RRU), Providence (RRU), Almond (BDU), Dam (BDU), Jones (BDU), Sycamore (BDU), Lightning (MVU), Assist 73, 85, 138 (MVU)1981– Basalt (LNU), Lightning #25(LMU), Likely (MNF), USFS#5 (SNF), Round Valley (TUU), St. Elmo (KRN), Buchanan (TCU), Murietta (RRU), Goetz (RRU), Morongo #29 (RRU), Rancho (RRU), Euclid (BDU), Oat Mt.
