Posted by a new writer for my blog, Lucas Ryan, who is handling all maps, and anything map related. Maps were taking up so much of my time. Thanks for coming on board – lifts a huge weight off my shoulders.

Google Earth with Dozer line overlay, fire activity, and fire perimeter. Red lines are completed Dozer lines. Green lines are proposed Dozer lines. See comment section for a link to the Google Earth KMZ Dozer file. Read more about the satellite heat detection here: xasauan today
A zoomed in view. Red lines are completed Dozer lines. Green lines are proposed Dozer lines.
Note (see most recent Maps & IR Log post for an updated link):
Adam Clark has provided a link for people to use if they don’t have Google Earth. You can find it here: Mapping Support (Black lines are completed Dozer lines and Blue lines are proposed Dozer lines)

Kate, do you know why the White Rock Club area is colored yellow on map above?
Looks like they're strengthening the fire breaks just north of Big Sur. Is there a link to a high-res version of the Operations Map available?
Regine, the map key says its BLM land.
Regine, White Rock Club is west of the yellow BLM land shown on the map. Helen G.
I really appreciate these maps that show where the fire was 24 hours ago. Gives a good sense of what and where things are going, and what I am probably seeing from Clear Ridge.
Thank you. Please keep these coming as they are what I look for.
Thank you,
John Mearns
Does anyone happen to know the source of the Dozer Maps? High-res, so we can download and print them? Any info appreciated.
On one of the maps above, there are blue rectangles with WX in them. From a community meeting at Carmel Middle School, I learned these are portable weather stations to assist firefighting. How can we, the public, access the readings of these stations record?
How can one get ahold of the printable daily version of the soberanes Cal Fire Dozer map?????
The current 1 page dozer map is at this link (6.9 mg) http://ftp.nifc.gov/incident_specific_data/calif_s/CALFIRE/2016_Incidents/CA-BEU-003422_Soberanes/GIS/Products/20160730/Ops_E_port_20160730_0030_Soberanes_CABEU003422_opt.pdf
The parent directory is: http://ftp.nifc.gov/incident_specific_data/calif_s/CALFIRE/2016_Incidents/CA-BEU-003422_Soberanes/GIS/Products/
Those with Google Earth can load KMZ of completed and proposed dozer line from this directory. (note in the KMZ, lines are one pixel, and enlarging the style (option in the "get info box) makes them easier to interpret. http://ftp.nifc.gov/incident_specific_data/calif_s/CALFIRE/2016_Incidents/CA-BEU-003422_Soberanes/GIS/intel/
