Summary
The USGS, on behalf of the Joint Fire Science Program (JFSP), conducted an evaluation of the Fire Science Exchange Network (FSEN), which connects wildland fire scientists and practitioners through 15 individual exchanges across the United States to help address complex wildfire needs and challenges. This data set is from an online survey sent to more than 16,000 exchange network users during February 2021, who were compiled from the electronic mailing lists for each exchange. Respondents were asked their opinions on the importance, quality, and delivery of information for 16 key fire science topics, the prioritization of FSEN objectives, and from where and to what extent respondents are gathering information on key topics.

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), Fort Collins Science Center (FORT) worked with the Joint Fire Science Program (JFSP) under an Interagency Agreement to collect information to inform decision making associated with coordinating and prioritizing efforts, resource allocation, and management actions and decisions across the JFSP exchange network. The data were not intended to be interpreted by the USGS to give advice to the JFSP Board, but instead for the USGS to complete analyses with the data and present it to the Board for them to interpret and make decisions.
