Wildfire Risk Analysis & Fire Modeling
We provide advanced wildfire risk analysis and fire behavior modeling to help organizations understand how fire is likely to move across the landscape—and what that means for people, infrastructure, and operations. Our approach combines geospatial analysis, fire behavior science, and real-world operational experience to translate complex modeling outputs into clear, actionable decisions.
What We Do
We develop scenario-based wildfire models and risk assessments that support planning, mitigation, and real-time decision-making.
Services include:
-
Fire behavior modeling under multiple weather, fuel, and ignition scenarios
-
Wildfire spread and intensity modeling across complex terrain
-
Evacuation and egress modeling to identify constraints and timing challenges
-
Risk mapping and spatial analysis of exposure to structures and infrastructure
-
Identification of critical control points and strategic mitigation opportunities
-
Scenario development to support planning, training, and policy decisions
Our Approach
Most modeling stops at producing maps. We go further.
Our process integrates:
-
Geospatial analysis to accurately represent fuels, topography, and development patterns
-
Fire behavior modeling grounded in real-world operational assumptions
-
Operational insight from incident command and planning experience
The result is not just data—it’s a clear understanding of:
-
What is likely to happen
-
Where it matters most
-
What actions will make a difference
Who this is for
We support a wide range of clients managing wildfire risk, including:
-
Fire departments and public agencies
