*'''Incident Command System (ICS)''':  System first developed to provide a command structure to manage large wildfires in the United States, now widely used by many emergency management agencies.
*'''Indian pump''': Water vessel carried on one's back, either a rigid can or collapsible bag, with a hose and telescoping squirt pump.  Contains 5 US gal, and is used on hot spots and during mop up.  Also called ''bladder bag'' (if collapsible), ''piss pump'', or ''Fedco''.
*'''Indirect attack''': A method of suppression in which the control line is located some considerable distance away from the fire’s active edge. Generally done in the case of a fast-spreading or high-intensity fire and to utilize natural or constructed firebreaks fuel breaks and favorable breaks in the topography. The intervening fuel is usually backfired; but occasionally the main fire is allowed to burn to the line, depending on conditions.
*'''Infrared (IR) detector''': A heat detection system used for fire detection, mapping, and hotspot identification.
*'''Initial attack''': The actions taken by the first resources to arrive at a wildfire to protect lives and property, and prevent further extension of the fire.
*'''Interface zone''': Where urban firefighting meets wildland firefighting.  Structures at the edges of wildlands are threatened and require skills and equipment of both disciplines.
