Using and Improving LANDFIRE BpS Models and Descriptions

Welcome to the dynamic world of vegetation systems modeling. This website is intended to help current and potential Biophysical Settings (BpS) model users locate, understand, and manipulate BpS of interest and to connect them with resources that support the appropriate application and modification of BpS models and descriptions.

This website was designed for a user with some knowledge about LANDFIRE BpS Models and Descriptions. If you are a new user and would like some background on these methods, check out the following resource.
