LANDFIRE Remap Fuel Vegetation Type (FVT) CONUS
The LANDFIRE (LF) Remap Fuel Vegetation Type (FVT) represents a modified pre-disturbance version of Existing Vegetation Type (EVT). FVT leverages fuel transition assignments related to disturbed areas by re-establishing pre-disturbance vegetation. FVT was developed using the full suite of LF vegetation releases and the most recent 10 years of Annual Disturbance products and is a capable fuels product that calculates Time Since Disturbance (TSD) assignments for disturbed areas using an effective year. For example, year 2019 fuels may be calculated for the year 2019. This new process considers all the existing disturbances included in LF Remap and adjusts the TSD for these to the effective year (2019 in this example), making the products "2019 capable fuels." More information about capable fuels can be found at https://www.landfire.gov/lf_remap.php. The FVT product is then evaluated through a series of QA/QC measures ensuring lifeform of the vegetation type assignment matches the lifeform of associated FVT attributes.
