-
This is a private workspace for the SE FireMap Technical Oversight Team (Team), an advisory body to the current project funder, the Natural Resources Conservation Service, as well as its cooperative agreement partner the Endowment for Forestry and Communities and subawardee the Longleaf Alliance (these three collectively known as the Project Managers). In August 2019, applicants to the Team were solicited from partners and experts across the Southeastern U.S. Based on application forms and input from stakeholders, members were selected from among applicants responding to a Statement of Interest circulated by the Endowment for Forestry and Communities. The selected members possess relevant technical skills and experience, as well as networking capacity in the fire science community throughout the U.S., to support the SE FireMap project and ensure its success.
