Instructions to find IAP and Maps for most incidents

General Discussion

They will most likely eventually post to FTP and it may be like how the DIXIE is but the opposite. DIXIE starts as state and then zone to fed. Fed has EAST Zone sub folder for their products under the state incident on FTP. I would assume this will occur next operational period.

Box.com is what CAL-FIRE uses as their file repo/disto application.

I made redirects for all the cal fire teams - tiny.cc/calfireimt(enterteamnumber)

The new stuff actually is on the FTP site - they started a new incident under ā€œCALFIREā€ instead of using the existing folder which was under ā€œFEDERALā€. I donā€™t believe thatā€™s what they were supposed to do but iā€™m not going to criticize especially since iā€™m not sitting in the trailer at 1am.

Hey! Thanks for the fast response! I missed itā€¦ should have looked before asking.

I just updated my links page for 2025. The page below links to many of the useful web sites that I have garnered from these forums over the years, including the NIFC FTP site (maps and IAPā€™s), satellite heat detections, weather and smoke links, and the AlertWildfire cams. I donā€™t think the CalFire Box links work anymore, but I left them anyway just in case. Other broken links have been updated. [Wildfire Links](https://wildfirelinks.weebly.com/)

Does anyone know where we can find an IAP for the TX Kerrville floods? I have not been successful with my usual locations.

Is there any sort of Team assigned that might be posting IAPsā€¦a Fed Team? I havenā€™t heard of any. I did hear the USAR Teams started arriving todayā€¦they run with a small Planning operation.

There is a Texas DEM IMT team in Kerr and their SOC is actived. If either are producing an IAP, it may be locked behind webeoc or email distributed. Hard to tell with states.

Here are the TX State Operations Center Situation Status Reports

I have a friend on USAR in TX and he texted me saying that his TF was activated for Monday, so they probably arrived today. I didnā€™t really want to text him to ask about the IAPs. I figured he was busy enough as it isā€¦

Thank you! Not quite an IAP, but the SITREP document does help a lot.
