Explore by Region

Within the FRAMES regions, wildland fire content is aggregated at a geographic level relevant to wildland fire management. The FRAMES regions correspond to the boundaries of the eleven Geographic Area Coordinating Centers (GACC) designated by the National Interagency Coordination Center (NICC).

Why only nine portals?

FRAMES has combined the California North Ops GACC and the California South Ops GACC into the California Fire Portal. The West Basin GACC and the East Basin GACC have been combined into the Great Basin Fire Portal.

Each FRAMES geographic fire portal provides an opportunity for collaboration between researchers and managers located within that particular region. FRAMES is working with regional researchers and managers, including some of the JFSP-funded Regional Consortia, to provide access to geographically-based and nationally relevant data, documents, and tools.

FRAMES and the JFSP Regional Consortia

The Joint Fire Science Program (JFSP) has developed a network of regional consortia to accelerate the awareness, understanding, and adoption of wildland Joint Fire Science Program logofire science information within ecologically similar regions. FRAMES is providing web support for the Alaska Fire Science Consortium and the Southern Rockies Fire Science Network. FRAMES is also providing the Southwest Fire Science Consortium with customized access to the FRAMES Resource Cataloging System for its Top Ten Fire Management Searches, and may develop customized access for additional consortia. FRAMES is also archiving some of the webinars hosted by the consortia.
