The LANDFIRE (LF) Canadian Forest Fire Danger Rating System (CFFDRS) product depicts fuel types as an identifiable association of fuel elements of distinctive species, form, size, arrangement, and continuity. CFFDRS exhibits characteristic fire behavior under the specified burn conditions. In LF 2016 Remap (LF Remap) the attribute table for the CFFDRS product is a Look Up Table (LUT) software called Prometheus. Prometheus was designed to allow a user on the ground, at a fire, to have a preference of fuel type depending on the situation and the fire environment. In Prometheus, the generic planning grid developed pre-season is populated with choices so that the user in the field can choose which is most appropriate at that given moment.
