The Fire Danger Rating Meter is based on the forecast weather conditions and gives you advice about the level of bushfire threat on a particular day. When the rating is high, the threat of a bushfire increases.
When the Fire Danger Rating Meter is Extreme or Catastrophic for your area it means any fires that start are likely to be so fierce that even a well prepared, well constructed and actively defended home may not survive a fire.

The ACT Emergency Services Agency declares a Total Fire Ban when necessary to prevent the outbreak or spread of fires. On Total Fire Ban days you are not allowed to light, use or maintain a fire in the open air.

In the SBMP, Fire Management Zones are identified as a subset of BPAs where measurable fuel management treatments are applied. The location and alignment of these zones reflect the risk of bushfires starting and spreading, and impacting on life, property and other assets.
The zones established include Asset Protection Zones, Strategic Firefighting Advantage Zones, Land Management Zones and Rural Land Management Zones.
The widths and locations of the Zones shown on this map are indicative and the actual widths and location will be determined in consideration of the ACT Fire Management Standards and operational requirements, through the development of Regional Fire Management Plans and Bushfire Operational Plans (including Farm Firewise). Chapter 11 of the SBMP details considerations used in determining the location and extent of Asset Protection Zones adjacent to new and established urban areas.
Fire Management Zoning maps will be reviewed as required to reflect significant changes, which may include unplanned bushfires or changes to the location or extent of assets. The Commissioner is responsible for approval of these maps.

The ACT Vegetation Map classifies native and derived vegetation across the ACT at 1:10,000 scale into 64 plant communities as at 2023, Australian Capital Territory, Australia.

The product includes the following attributes :

umcID – Upper Murrumbidgee Catchment vegetation ID (unique vegetation code)(after Armstrong et al 2013)

vegCommunity – vegetation community name (after Armstrong et al 2013 and Baines et al 2013)

tecACT - listing name of the ACT threatened ecological community (may require field inspection to verify)

tecEPBC - listing name of the EPBC threatened ecological community (may require field inspection to verify)

tecID - ID of ACT threatened ecological community

actConservationStatus - listing status of the vegetation community under the Nature Conservation Act

epbcConservationStatus - listing status of the vegetation community under the EPBC Act

pctCode - ACT plant community type code

treesp1-3 – dominant tree species

shrubsp1-3 – dominant shrub species

groundsp1-3 – dominant ground cover species

canopyCover – canopy cover % (based on 1m 2020 LiDAR canopy cover model)

height_mean canopy height (>3m) (based on 1m 2020 LiDAR canopy height model)

underCover – understory/shrub cover % (1-3m) (based on 1m 2020 LiDAR shrub model)

structure – overall vegetation community structure – e.g. woodland, forest, grassland

formation – Keith Formation - broad classification of native vegetation type in NSW and ACT. Formation can be further divided into Keith Class (Keith 2004)

class – Keith Class- vegetation class (Keith 2004).

hectares - area of polygon unit in hectares.

lastVegComm - community as it was last mapped as before change

landscape - upland or lowland

This is the result of an initiative of the ACT Government, with support from Geoscience Australia, to create a 'single point of truth' road, track and trail data set for the ACT and its immediate region. Data was brought together from a range of existing custodians and combined to provide a single authoritative data set. The data was filtered and cleaned to select the best representation, both spatially and for the related attributes. The data set is maintained in the ACT Government's Corporate Geographic Database by these custodians according to agreed policy maintenance responsibilities. The data model in a hybrid of one developed by the ICSM Road Working Group adapted to meet specific needs of the ACT government. The entities include Transport_Line, Crossing_Point and Traffic_Control_Device_Point.
