Applying innovative science and technology to on-the-ground natural resource management

The National Center for Landscape Fire Analysis, a program in the College of Forestry and Conservation at the University of Montana, Missoula, aims to link scientific and technological developments with wildland fire and land management. Our web site provides an overview of who we are, what we do, and how we do it; if you have further questions, please contact us for more information. 

The Fire Center meets in Boise this week with the other members of the new decision support-science partnership: the RMRS's LANDFIRE, Fire, Fuels, and Smoke Program, Research Development and Application unit and the Univ. of Idaho FRAMES
