FireView™

FireView™: Wildfire Intelligence for Planning, Risk, and Operations

FireView™ 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, FireView provides landscape‑scale analytics that help communities, utilities, and land managers plan, prioritize, and operate with confidence.

Fuel ID Data and Modeling Workflows

FireView™ leverages the Fuel ID pipeline to derive 56+ canopy, mid-story, and surface fuel characteristics and high-resolution Canadian FBP maps, then runs behavior models at scale for planning and operations.

Benefits

  • Higher‑resolution fuels and faster updates

  • Landscape‑scale simulations (Prometheus, BURN‑P3) for scenarios.

  • Integrated with permitting, resilience planning and operations.

NOTES

  • 56+ fuel characteristics modeled from LiDAR/ satellite.

  • Built with fire weather/behavior specialists.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Fuel ID?

An automated pipeline that creates fuel characteristics and FBP/FBP-NG maps from LiDAR and satellite to support modeling and operations.

Do you support large-scale simulations?

Yes — FireView™ runs Prometheus and BURN-P3 for hazard, burn probability, and spread scenarios.
