Common use of Alaska Known Sites Database Clause in Contracts

Alaska Known Sites Database. The Alaska Known Sites Database (AKSD) identifies infrastructure, and cultural and natural resource sites throughout Alaska that may be threatened by wildfire. The intent of this dataset is to provide information on known sites located outside of the urban areas and is not a replacement for “structure” data available from the different Boroughs. Furthermore, not all known sites information collected by Agencies and other partners are included in the AKSD. Protection Agencies will need to work with the Jurisdictional Agencies to ensure they have access to these additional known site records. The AKSD provides locations, descriptions, and jurisdictions, as well as direction regarding site protection priorities. These data are made available to fire managers and other authorized data users through a password-protected website (National Interagency Fire Center – ArcGIS Online) in order to support wildland fire planning and decision-making. There are two primary sources of site information included in the AKSD: • Jurisdictional Agency inventory and assessments. • Data collected by Protecting Agency staff and IMTs. These data are subject to review by Jurisdictional Agency administrative units on which sites reside. o AKSD is a dynamic product with real-time updates (i.e., new data are available for immediate use).
