Featured Projects

Our data is used for a number of wildfire hazard modeling applications, such as mapping state and regional wildfire risk:

Projects

A 10-m Fuelscape for All-lands in Texas

A fuelscape is a quantitative raster representation of the fuel, vegetation, and topography across a landscape. The fuelscape consists of geospatial datasets representing surface fuel model (FM40), canopy cover (CC), canopy height (CH), canopy bulk density (CBD), canopy base height (CBH), and topography (slope, aspect, elevation). These datasets can be combined into a single landscape […]

Contemporary Wildfire Hazard Across Texas

The purpose of the Texas Wildfire Hazard Assessment (TWRA) is to provide essential information about wildfire hazard across all land ownerships within the state of Texas. The foundation of any wildfire risk assessment is the wildfire hazard data used to characterize fire behavior on the landscape. In the quantitative framework for assessing wildfire risk to […]

Contemporary Wildfire Hazard Across the Southeastern U.S.

The purpose of the Southern Region Wildfire Hazard and Risk Assessment (SWRA) is to provide essential information about wildfire hazard across all land ownerships within the region. The foundation of any wildfire risk assessment is the wildfire hazard data used to characterize fire behavior on the landscape. In the quantitative framework for assessing wildfire risk […]

A Fuelscape for All Lands Across the Southeastern US

A fuelscape is a representation of the fuel, vegetation, and topography across a landscape. The fuelscape consists of geospatial datasets representing surface fuel model (FM40), canopy cover (CC), canopy height (CH), canopy bulk density (CBD), canopy base height (CBH), slope, elevation, and aspect. These datasets can be combined into a single landscape file (LCP) and […]

Contemporary Wildfire Hazard Across New Jersey

In March 2022, Pyrologix was contracted by Timmons Group and the New Jersey Forest Fire Service to conduct a wildfire hazard assessment for the state of New Jersey. This project is part of the New Jersey Wildfire Hazard Assessment Project (NJHAZ). This effort involved three primary tasks: calibrating and updating the fuelscape, producing measures of […]

A Fuelscape for All-lands in Utah

The effort to produce a wildfire hazard assessment across all land ownerships in Utah began in October 2021 when the Timmons Group and Utah Department of Natural Resources contracted with Pyrologix. The foundation of any wildfire hazard or risk assessment is a current-condition fuelscape, updated for recent disturbances and calibrated to reflect the fire behavior […]

Contemporary Wildfire Hazard Across Colorado

In September 2021, the Black Hills National Forest (BKF) contracted with Pyrologix to conduct a spatial wildfire hazard assessment across the BKF. The BKF is set to undergo Forest Plan Revision and the Potential Operational Delineations (POD) planning process and identified the need for comprehensive fire modeling to provide supporting documentation. The results of this […]

A Fuelscape for Colorado All-Lands

The effort to produce a quantitative wildfire risk assessment across all land ownerships in Colorado began in February 2019 when the Rocky Mountain Region of the USDA Forest Service contracted with Pyrologix. The foundation of any wildfire hazard or risk assessment is a current-condition fuelscape, updated for recent disturbances and calibrated to reflect the fire […]

A Fuelscape for All Land Ownerships in the Eastern Region

The Eastern Region of the USDA Forest Service contracted with Pyrologix to complete an assessment of wildfire hazard across all land ownerships in the northeastern states. The foundation of any wildfire hazard or risk assessment is a current-condition fuelscape, updated for recent disturbances and calibrated to reflect the fire behavior potential observed in recent historical […]

Contemporary Wildfire Hazard Across Utah

In October 2021,Pyrologix was contracted by Timmons Group and the Utah Department of Natural Resources to conduct a wildfire hazard assessment for the state of Utah. This project is part of the Utah Wildfire Risk Assessment Portal (UWRAP) and the wildfire hazard maps produced will be used to update the portal. This effort involved three […]
