Inciweb has the best public information, here are a couple other useful links.<div><br></div><div><a href="http://activefiremaps.fs.fed.us/lg_fire2.php">http://activefiremaps.fs.fed.us/lg_fire2.php</a></div><div>The forest service Large Fire Page, provides a little more spatial location of fires. A large fire is classified as 300 acres or larger in timber and 2000 acres and larger for grassland (and sage). IMT stands for Incident Management Team, split up by Type 1 and Type 2 incidents. A Type 1 is more complex, larger incidents then a Type 2. </div>
<div><br></div><div><a href="http://www.nifc.gov/nicc/sitreprt.pdf">http://www.nifc.gov/nicc/sitreprt.pdf</a></div><div>The SIT report is updated daily and is a general overview of resources assigned to large fires. It's updated daily and probably has the most accurate up to date information. It's more directed at fire personal, so there is some jargon used. A * is used to identify new fires, and "ctn" stands for Containment. They are also ranked in order of priority. </div>
