Burnt land cadastre CFS collects fires data from the year1970 by using a sheet called “AIB/FN”; In the year 1997 the sheet has been updated, integrated with info on causes and digitalized; Since 2002 the burnt areas are also GPSed and an electronic sheet on all the fires is prepared; On 2006 the cadastre of burnt land is established by the CFS and further developed after year 2007.

Burtn land cadastre Called “RAFP”, such cadastre is part of the more general “land dossier” (Fascicolo territoriale) of CFS; It is connected with the IT National Forest Inventory and aims at tracking disturbance phenomena at municipality level to avoid perverse effects (building).
10
Conclusions 2010 turned out to be an year under the average level of fires for favorable weather conditions; 2011 could be more risky (low rain and high temperatures already during early spring); CFS is concentrating its efforts in cadastre of burnt areas, investigation and knowledge on causes (task force NIAB established in the year 2000)
