2016 Fire History polygons of Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks

Folger K. 2016. 2016 Fire History polygons of Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks. Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks, CA and immediate vicinity.

This coverage represents the SEKI fire history from 1921 through 2016. 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. 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.
