    Metadata Updated: November 14, 2025

    Note: This Wildfire Hazard Potential (WHP) image service has been deprecated. Previous versions—including 2014, 2018, 2020, and 2023 continuous and classified datasets—have been replaced by a unified WHP service containing the most current data.For the updated continuous WHP service, visit: https://usfs.maps.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=c984aeeecfcc4bef887a3f72a5b4e65a For the updated classified WHP service, visit: https://usfs.maps.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=13004659506b4032bf7998038176f1c3The wildfire hazard potential (WHP) is a raster geospatial product at 270-meter resolution covering all lands in the conterminous United States. It can help to inform evaluations of wildfire risk or prioritization of fuels management needs across very large landscapes (millions of acres). Our specific objective with the WHP map is to depict the relative potential for wildfire that would be difficult for suppression resources to contain.
