The National Predictive Services Program is
the lead program in providing decision support services to the wildland
fire community at the Geographic Area Coordination Center (GACC) and National
Coordination Center (NICC) level. In general, the Predictive Services Unit
consists of assimilating Intelligence Operations, Fire Behavior, and Fire Weather
Programs to produce National and Area-wide Fire Weather / Fire Danger / Fire
Behavior
Outlook products. In addition to producing
these documents, each component also produces their own program specific
products ranging from situation reporting, resource analysis, weather
station monitoring, and weather forecasting, to fuel moisture and fire behavior
analysis.
