Community-Scale Wildfire Risk Reduction Driven by Operational Experience

Community Wildfire Resiliency services translate operational wildfire expertise and analytics into on-the-ground planning, wildfire exposure risk reduction, and preparedness. Our team supports communities, Indigenous Nations, and forestland managers in creating operationally feasible plans and prescriptions that aim to reduce expected fire behavior, improve ingress/egress, and contribute to defensible space. Our objectives are to promote human safety, preserve valued places, and protect homes and property.

Benefits

  • Community resilience planning — CWPPs, CWRPs and FireSmart (CAN), fuels management prescriptions, prescribed burn planning — and funding support

  • High-resolution fuels mapping and wildfire behavior modeling for targeted mitigation — powered by FireViewTM

  • Prescribed burn planning, fuels management prescriptions and implementation monitoring, and post-fire recovery planning

  • Utility wildfire risk analytics and mitigation planning, as well as operational awareness tools offered through RiskViewTM

FireView™ Analytics, Fuels Mapping, and Modeling for Targeted Mitigation

FireViewTM turns weather data, fuels, terrain, and ignition patterns into wildfire intelligence you can act on. From fire forecasting and burn probability to exposure and scenario modeling, FireViewTM provides landscape-scale analytics that help communities, utilities, and land managers plan, prioritize and operate with confidence.

  • Higher-resolution fuels and faster updates

  • Landscape-scale simulations and projections of different management scenario outcomes

  • Integrated with permitting, resilience planning, and operations
