Regional Fire Inventory Data Collection and Analysis Framework
This comprehensive document outlines the data elements, calculation stream, and procedural steps required for WESTAR-WRAP agencies to contribute to the regional fire inventory. It covers aspects such as event reporting, emissions verification, fire type characteristics, fuel information, consumption modeling, emission factors, and emissions inventory creation. Suggestions for implementing these steps based on agency expertise and resources are provided, along with a list of subject matter experts to consult for further development.

Fire EI Data Elements / Calculation Stream a. b. What aspects are missing? Should the CM impose basic procedural steps for a WESTAR-WRAP agency to address in contributing to the regional fire inventory? i. Starting from EVENTS to build the inventory? ii. Starting from analysis of an existing EMISSIONS dataset to verify data as estimated? iii. Require fire type activity characteristics reporting (spatial, temporal, variation in magnitudes) Can pieces of CM inputs discussed so far be implemented by WESTAR-WRAP agencies given different levels of expertise and resources? What Subject Matter Experts should we bring in, if any, to flesh out CM?
