Landscape (LCP) GeoTIFF

Landscape data and Landscape Fire Behavior model outputs can be downloaded as a Geo Tiff (.tif) raster dataset for use in other applications such as ArcMap. The GeoTIFF landscape file download includes 12 bands. There are 4 in addition to the 8 that are visible within the IFTDSS application. The downloads also have different units than IFTDSS presents.

Band number, name, and units for IFTDSS landscapes created on or after IFTDSS Version 3.12 release on 1 July 2026.
