All fires by agency

2016 KMZ files are now available for BIA, BOR, BLM and NPS. Right click on the files and save to the desktop. Open GoogleEarth and then open the files.

Notice: These fire occurrence KMZ files are intended for use with GoogleEarth. While the files can be opened with Google Maps, it is not recommended, as Google Maps has a display limit of (approximately) 1000 points.

Please be patient when opening these large KMZ files in GoogleEarth - they can take a few minutes to load and display.
