Wildland Fire Trends Tool

The Wildland Fire Trends Tool (WFTT) is a data visualization and analysis tool that calculates and displays wildfire trends and patterns for the western U.S. based on user-defined regions of interest, time periods, and ecosystem types. Users can use the tool to easily generate a variety of maps, graphs, and tabular data products that are informative for all levels of expertise. 

Arrastra Gulch, Silverton, CO 3D Data Viewer

Airborne electromagnetic and magnetotelluric geophysical surveys were conducted from 2018 to 2019 in Arrastra Gulch along the southern margins of the San Juan and Silverton calderas. This scene provides 3-D data integration combining electromagnetic data, geologic and historical mine mapping, and high-resolution drone imagery.
