[pct-l] Angora fire extent

[matt maxon]

My experience with these maps is they show what they consider the perimeter.

It is not what has actually  burned. 

Large swaths inside these boundaries may or may not  be burned.

The collection of the data is sometimes questionable, but it is a very 
dynamic situation. As time progresses  more accurate info will become 
available.
