Western States Caucus Roundtable
2023-03-15 11:00 - 14:00
You are cordially invited by the Western States Caucus from the National States Geographic Information Council (NSGIC) to the first annual virtual community roundtable discussion.
Our discussion will focus around the merits and challenges of building a common operating picture based on shared, authoritative geospatial data to solve western problems. Join GIS leaders across western states as we showcase shining examples where geospatial data and technology were used as an effective tool to overcome challenges common to our geography. We will also brainstorm on the roadblocks to achieving this outcome regardless of jurisdictional boundaries and how we can empower western states and their constituents to take advantage of the power this technology provides.
Gov. Kitzhaber (former Oregon governor) is among the invited guests, along with a long list of federal agencies, state leaders, and non-governmental organizations. Please feel free to extend this invitation to others in your network if you cannot attend or that you think would benefit from attending this informative session.

The purpose of the Western States Caucus is to discuss relevant challenges and issues happening in Western states and identify ways to develop goals and make progress on completing these goals.
If you have any questions about the Western States Caucus, please contact Karen Rogers (krogers@dewberry.com) or Leland Pierce (leland.pierce@state.nm.us). If you have any technical issues with the StoryMap or registration link, please contact Emily Ruetz (emily.ruetz@nsgic.org).

Agenda

3-3:10: Welcome, Introductions, and Announcements
3:10 – 3:30 PM: Eva Karau, Analyst, Fire Modeling Institute, Forest Service will speak about wildfirerisk.org data development. Please see details about this data below.
3:30 – 3:40 PM: Tyre to speak about INL maps.
3:40 – 4:15 PM: Discussion

What is the authoritative dataset(s)?
Is this also the best dataset?
Are there things we can do to make this a better dataset?

WILDFIRERISK.ORG DETAILS FROM EVA KARAU:
Wildfire Risk to Communities data are free and available for download as tables and GIS files through the Forest Service Research Data Archive. Here is the link to the page that describes the downloadable data: https://wildfirerisk.org/download/. Scroll down on that page and you will see the individual layers, and in the text there is a link the storage location in the archive, but there are really just 2 data publications, one for the risk datasets (https://www.fs.usda.gov/rds/archive/Catalog/RDS-2020-0016) and one for the populated areas datasets (https://www.fs.usda.gov/rds/archive/catalog/RDS-2020-0060)
