California Forest Observatory: A Data-Driven Forest Monitoring System

The California Forest Observatory is a data-driven forest and fuels monitoring system. We map the drivers of wildfire hazard across the state—including forest structure, weather, topography & infrastructure—from space. Our regularly-updated, nearly tree-level data is designed to be used by researchers, land managers & policymakers. The data are freely available for non-commercial use by scientists, government agencies, and non-profits.
