The Wildland Fire Interagency Geospatial Services (WFIGS) Group provides authoritative geospatial data products under the interagency Wildland Fire Data Program, hosted in the National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC) ArcGIS Online Organization.The Fire Integrated Real-time Intelligence System (FIRIS) is a public-private partnership program that provides real-time intelligence data and analysis on emerging disaster incidents in California. Funded by the California Office of Emergency Services (CalOES), the funding supports aircraft, a common operating picture, and near-real-time fire modeling by WIFIRE that is available at the onset of emerging incidents.FIRIS uses the Overwatch Imaging platform, which includes an aerial infra-red (IR) platform that integrates cutting-edge technologies provided by Aevex Aviation. FIRIS has two equipped fixed-winged aircraft staffed 7 days a week at two different locations, Sacramento and Los Alamitos California. Additionally, Orange County Fire Authority order and dispatch both aircraft while CalOES administers the data. By transmitting information from satellites onboard the fixed-winged aircraft, highly accurate fire perimeter information make it to ground resources in real-time. That data is fed to Intterra’s wildfire decision support software where WIFIRE retrieves the data for predictive analytics.This public layer was created to be used by the CAL FIRE Communications Program for the CAL FIRE incident map.California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection | CAL FIRE
