Wildfire Risk Main Model

Description

The model combines three modeled fire behavior parameters (rate of spread, flame length, crown fire potential) and one modeled ecological health measure (fire regime condition class) with wildland urban interface areas and ignition probability. Fire behavior parameters were modeled using FlamMap; fire regime condition class was modeled using the FRCC tool; wildland urban interface areas were delineated using spatial data from the county level community wildfire protection plans within the state; and ignition probabilities were derived using fire history locations from 1987-2008. For a detailed description of each parameter, refer to the data atlas found at http://allaboutwatersheds.org/groups/SAS/public/data-atlases.
