New Operational National Satellite Burned Area Product

New 1-pager from USGS, Great Plains Fire Science Exchange, and SRFSN: New Operational National Satellite Burned Area Product. Land management and large-scale assessments of fire activity are hindered by the inconsistencies related to spatial and temporal fire information. There are a variety of uses remote-sensing can have in the wildland fire interface, these including monitoring of fire activity, augment existing fire data, and fill in information gaps.
