GIS STandard Operating Procedures
on Incidents
• PMS 936• September 2014 publication date• 2014 version DID NOT change GISS PTB (2009)
http://www.nwcg.gov/pms/pubs/gstop.pdf
GSTOP Key Points!• “... will be met by all NWCG participating
agencies.” • Data management, symbology and map
products, data sharing, team transition• 2014 main updates: Ch. 2 (data mgmt.),
Ch. 5 (symbology), and Ch. 6 (maps) http://gis.nwcg.gov/gstop_symbol.html
• Ch. 7 reminder: datasets shared on a daily basis are fire perimeter and fireline layers• Post data on a the NIFC ftp site, ftp://
ftp.nifc.gov • Many applications and sites depend on this:
www.geomac.gov , http://inciweb.nwcg.gov/
GPS & Mobile Technology on Incidents
