Strategic Area Resources & Assets (SARA)

Identifying, mapping, and ranking important SARAs within the landscape facilitates appropriate treatment design and prioritization for landscape scale restoration. 

SARAs have 3 basic requirements for analysis inclusion:    

          1. Must be able to be mapped with some precision

          2. Must be effected by fire or affect fire behavior

          3. Must have societal value
