- Description

- Abstract USFS, State Forestry, BLM, and DOI fire occurrence point locations from 1987
to 2008 were combined and converted into a fire occurrence probability or density
grid using the point statistic spatial analyst tool in ArcGIS. The fire occurrence
point data was supplied by NM State Forestry, BLM, BIA, and USFS. The fire
occurrence density layer was created by The Nature Conservancy in New Mexico in
2009.
- Purpose Gives value to areas where fires are likely to occur assuming that there will
be an increase in probability of a fire occurring in areas where they have occurred
in the past

- Overview Description
-
- Entity and Attribute Overview The data of the New Mexico Statewide Natural Resources Assessment was organized
around eight core data themes suggested in the 2008 Farm Bill. The eight core data
themes include: Fish and Wildlife Habitat (Biodiversity), Development Risk
(Potential), Economic Development (Potential), Forest Health, Fragmentation, Green
Infrastructure, Water Quality and Supply, and Wildfire Risk. For each core data
theme, models were developed and served as the foundation for identifying the
priority landscapes within New Mexico for the Statewide Strategy and Response Plan.
While the 2008 Farm Bill provided the framework for the models developed, the Forest
and Watershed Health Plan provided the vision for the content of each model and
placed emphasis on expanding the scope to include all resources, not just forest
resources. Technical teams, comprised of subject and technical experts from agencies
and other partners, served as the advisors in the development each of the data
models. Individuals on the technical teams range from environmental organizations,
private industry, federal, state, and municipal partners, private landowners,
conservation organizations, and citizens groups. One technical team was formed for
each of the eight core data models. The ignition probability layer was created as an
input into the wildfire Risk model. The spatial layers are housed on the New Mexico
Resource Geographic Information System Program (RGIS), a cooperative program between
the University of New Mexico and the New Mexico Information Technology Commission
and can be found at http://rgis.unm.edu/data_entry.cfm

Development of the Statewide Natural Resource Assessment. It is also available
