The downloadable ZIP file contains an number of Esri shapefiles as described below.  This data set provides the spatial information used to complete a post fire inventory and assessment for the 2015 Slide Fire in Idaho and Idaho County, Idaho.  The fire burned 10,163 acres within Idaho County, Idaho in August 2015.  Data was prepared by several agencies including US Forest Service, USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service, US Geological Survey, and the Nez Perce Soil and Water Conservation District.  Data was prepared for the North Central Idaho Wildfire Restoration Group as part of their efforts in preparing the North Central Idaho Wildfire Inventory and Assessment Report (2015).Several data sets are available and are described as follows:Burn Severity: This data set reflects the fire burn severity and classifies intensity in to three categories. Data field verified and processed by the US Forest Service, Nez Perce and Clearwater National Forests, Orofino, Idaho. Shape files and KMZ files are included. Files are named SlideBurnSeverityFire Boundary: Data shows the 2015 fire boundary. Data generated by US Forest Service. File name: Slide Fire Boundary or contains the words heat perimeter.Hillslope Erosion: Within the fire boundary, hillslope erosion rates were identified. Data was organized into one of four categories; low (0-1 tons/acre), moderate (1-10 tons/acre), high (10-50 tons/acre), and very high (>50 tons/acre). Potential hillslope erosion was estimated using the GeoWEPP model. GeoWEPP is a geo-spatial interface for WEPP (Water Erosion Prediction Project). GeoWEPP Model Runs completed by Mary Miller, Michigan Tech Research Institute and USFS Rocky Mountain Research Station, Moscow, Idaho. Map Generated by Nikki Lane, Nez Perce Soil and Water Conservation District. June 2016. Files named SlideGeoWeppLand Cover: Land cover categories generated from National Land Cover Database (2011, USGS). Data processed by clipping NLCD by 2015 fire boundary. Fire boundary generated from InciWeb. Categories include; Developed, Open Space - Mix of constructed materials, but mostly lawn grasses. Impervious surfaces < 20% of total cover. Deciduous Forest - >20% deciduous trees. Evergreen Forest - >20% evergreen trees. Mixed Forest – >20% trees with mix of deciduous and evergreen trees. Shrub/Scrub >20% shrub vegetation. Grassland/Herbaceous - >80% grass /other herbaceous vegetation. Pasture/Hay - Areas of grasses, legumes, or grass-legume mixtures planted for livestock grazing or the production of seed or hay crops, typically on a perennial cycle. Cultivated Crops Areas used for the production of annual crops and/or being annually tilled. Woody Wetlands – Soils that are periodically saturated or covered with water and contain >20% forest or shrubland vegetation. Emergent Herbaceous Wetlands Soils that are periodically saturated or covered with water and vegetation is >80% herbaceous.

File name SlideForestedAcresOnPrivateLandPost Fire Debris Flow Analysis for stream segments: USGS post fire debris flow hazard analysis for stream segments within the 2015 fire boundary. Debris flow hazard classified as low (stream segments with low probability of debris flow occurrence and smallest debris flow volume), moderate (stream segments with relatively low probability of occurrence and larger debris flow volume estimates) and high (high probability of occurrence and large debris flow volume estimate). File names contain the wording slide2015_segment_dfpredictions_25yr or Slide25yrSegmentHazardRatingFINAL12_22_2015.Post Fire Debris Flow Analysis for basins: USGS post fire debris flow hazard analysis for basins within the 2015 fire boundary. Debris flow hazard classified as low (basins with low probability of debris flow occurrence and smallest debris flow volume), moderate (basins with relatively low probability of occurrence and larger debris flow volume estimates) and high (high probability of occurrence and large debris flow volume estimate). File names contain the wording slide2015_basin_dfpredictions_25yr or Slide25yrBasinHazardRatingFINAL12_22_2015.Planting Groups: Data layer contains forest planting groups as identified by USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service. Data reflects private lands within the 2015 burned area that were forest land cover.
