In response to the increasing severity and cost of wildfires in the United States, the NASA Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate (ARMD) conducted a one-day Wildfire Management Workshop on May 13, 2021. The NASA Aeronautics Research Institute (NARI) at the NASA Ames Research Center organized the event. The goal of the workshop was to provide a forum for representatives from wildfire organizations (government, private, and academic) to raise important issues and discuss solutions. The proceedings consisted of presentations from the U.S. Forest Service, NASA Space Technology Mission Directorate, and NASA Applied Sciences Disasters Program. Also included were two sessions of breakout groups that focused on specific wildfire management issues. Some major themes that emerged from the breakout groups included data access and management, wildfire modeling, improving organizational collaboration, the use of aircraft in fighting fires and collecting data, and providing front line firefighters with the information tools they need to be effective. The output of the workshop will be used by ARMD to consider avenues that NASA might take to help with wildfire management.
