Resources
The Central Hub for Wildfire Data and Research
Our Resources serve as the primary hub for all data, reports, and downloadable materials related to the ReSHAPE program and TWIG. We provide these assets to ensure that land managers, researchers, and the public have easy access to the most current wildfire and fuel treatment information. Our library is updated frequently to reflect new research findings and tool enhancements, providing actionable value for those working to increase forest resilience across the nation.
ReSHAPE Program Resources
Explore our collection of peer-reviewed papers, impact reports, and technical briefings. This collection provides the scientific foundation of our work and documents the outcomes of our multidisciplinary research programs.
TWIG Data Resources
Access the technical framework behind our initiative. This includes documentation on the Treatment Index, metadata standards, and the methodologies used to crosswalk disparate federal data systems.
Glossary
Clear definitions are essential for effective cross-boundary collaboration. Our glossary provides standardized terminology for wildfire science and forest treatment activities used within the TWIG viewer.
Related Resources
The Related Datasets & Tools section is the primary location for accessing online or downloadable assets, other than TWIG, that are relevant to fuel treatment and wildfire research and management.
