Overview

This data layer in WFDSS is from the Homeland Security Infrastructure Program (HSIP) Gold 2010 version. HSIP Gold 2010 is a unified inventory of homeland infrastructure foundational geospatial data assembled by the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) in partnership with Department of Defense (DoD), Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) for use by the Homeland Security/Homeland Defense (HLS/HD) Community. It is a compilation of the best available Federal government and commercial proprietary data.

Data Input

This feature class is from the HSIP Gold 2010 Infrastructure ArcGIS 9.3 mining geodatabase.

Mines (HSIP) GIS Team Contacts

The WFDSS application is "data rich". It requires data which is spatially oriented and graphically displays information to support wildland fire and other natural resource decisions. Due to the type and number of interagency spatial data sets required in April 2009 an interagency GIS Team was formed to provide data support for WFDSS. This Team is responsible for acquiring, consolidating, and validating their agency spatial and tabular data. In addition this team developed and maintained communications among local, regional, and national agency personnel to improve the collection process and provide explicit guidance on data needs. The members of the WFDSS GIS Team are:
