Fire history overlay of most recent fires

This layer has been derived from FIRE_HISTORY data and represents the spatial extent of the last fires recorded, primarily on public land. The layer stores details of the last time an area was known to be burnt by wildfire or prescribed burning and represents a consecutive overlay of all FIRE_HISTORY layers, from older fire seasons to the most recent fire seasons.

This data set is current to 2022/23 fire season. There is no severity data for Gippsland in this version for season 18/19 and 19/20.
