Strategic Landscape Assessment Work Group (SLAWG)
coordinates and guides efforts to conduct a landscape-level assessmentsOverview
As a subgroup of the Planning WG, the SLAWG coordinates and guides efforts to conduct a landscape-level assessment of the ACCG footprint and develop processes and tools to help advance projects aligned with the ACCG’s all-lands, landscape scale vision and triple bottom line mission.

GIS Tools
To date, a set of GIS products have been developed to aid in landscape planning, including tracking fuels reduction related projects and identifying high-risk areas to future predicted wildfire. These tools are intended to be interactive and adaptable as new data becomes available. Click the button above, Read the GIS Tools Information Sheet, or click here to learn more about the SLAWG GIS Tools. Also, as part of this work, a process was developed to automate tool maintenance and process knowledge sharing.
