Select a tab below to access direct download options for individual fire data bundles, annual state and national-level burn severity mosaics or national shapefiles for burned area boundaries and fire occurrences.
Please note when a fire year is missing from the query results list, there are no published fires for that year and region.
MTBS provides web map services (WMS) as another method to access the national MTBS geospatial datasets. All three types of the seamless national datasets are published as an Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC)-compliant WMS. Please use the WMS Connection URL to access this service within an application. The GetCapabilities URL can also be used to obtain information about the published service. The KML links provide access to an interface that allows you to add the data for selected years to create a customized KML.
The MTBS Data Explorer (MDE) provides a link to a Google Earth Engine(GEE)-based application to dynamically explore and visualize MTBS burn severity data, generate charts and tabular summaries as well as observed trends. Please also note a delay of approximately 2 weeks is possible with updating the following map services as well as the GEE assets for the MDE after new data are released. Data publication dates are provided for reference.
