| revision: | a modified data suite of the base map, often necessary before an update, for example: LF 2001 |
| update: | a vegetation and fuels mapping effort using the base product suite to more accurately represent current conditions and account for landscape disturbances and succession, for example: LF 2008 |
Schedule and Release Dates
LF National, delivered in 2009, was the first LF suite of base maps. The vegetation and fuel layers were updated four times to more accurately represent current conditions and account for landscape disturbances. LF 2016 Remap, a comprehensive vegetation and fuels mapping effort designed to produce new LF product suite base maps, will be released incrementally 2019-2021, by LF Geographic Areas (GeoAreas), as shown in the chart below.
