NIFC Use Case
• NIFC is the nation’s logistical and support center for wild land fire and,
sometimes, national emergencies.
• NIFC is where state, federal and tribal agencies work together to get fire
personnel, aircraft, supplies, and equipment from anywhere in the country to
where they are needed the most.
• In the last decade, there have been over 76,000 fires and 6.5 Million Acres
burned per year by wild land fires.
Why EGP?
• NIFC required a common view of authenticated and validated data on wild
land fire that was spatially enabled from one source.
• Visualization of data and analysis from multiple fire reporting and intelligence
sources.
• Faster fusion of information
• Before this, decision makers and managers had to monitor multiple sites to
develop a “picture” of the historical, current, and predicted situation
