Statistics show that wildland fires are igniting more frequently and
causing more damage with each passing year. From the forest-surrounded
communities of the western landscape and rural grasslands of the Midwest to
the eastern states and wild areas of our National Forests and Parks. Due to
the frequency of fire throughout the year, many local governments, federal
employees, and public safety managers need quick access to the most current
Wildland Fire data. Luckily the Living Atlas has just what we need.

In this quick article we will tell you how to connect directly to the USA
Current Wildfires hosted feature service for viewing in your ArcGIS Pro
maps and layouts. Directly streaming authoritative data means you don’t
have to maintain copies of the data. This is beneficial because copies of
data would become outdated within hours of downloading them.

When you follow the directions below, you will be connected to a live feed
of the original data so when updates are made by the authoritative
agencies, the data you see in your maps will also be updated.
