Gulf Savannah NRM presents a workshop on using NAFI maps for fire management. The North Australian & Rangelands Fire Information (NAFI) Website provides maps of fires based on satellite images to help fire managers across regional and remote Australia.

NAFI is the primary fire information service used by the majority of land managers across Australia and is the legislated source of fire data that underpins savanna burning carbon projects.

During the course you will gain practical skills using NAFI for monitoring fires, planning strategic fire plans and reporting including:

1. Basic introduction into how satellites ‘see’ fires

2. When you might use NAFI throughout the fire year

3. How you can access NAFI – Computer or Phone

4. Basic website navigation and key tools

5. NAFI training resources

Bring your laptop and smartphone.

Catering is provided, but only if you remember to register!
