Wild Fire Risk Assessment - Safety Protocols Forecasting
Wild Fire has burned across Europe and Alaska in the month of July 2022, thousands of homes, millions of acres of lands were destroyed, hundreds of thousands of lives were at risk, as temperature kept beating record high. These disasters would only acerbate as the average global temperature continue to rise.
Wild Fire is affected by 3 main factors, Temperature, Humidity, Wind, as humidity drops fire is much easier to start, which would further fueled by high temperature, soon as a fire is started, it could be by dry lightening, a cigaret smoke, or a small burning coal left over by a barbecue, wind would then play a very large role for the spread for the fire.
A recent popular Netflix reality documentary series - Big Timber has talked about risk of wild fire in one of the episode. Their risk was from rock blasting, and their team was under pressure to complete their work before a point called “Cross Over”.
“A fire burning under this condition will exhibit extreme behaviour and should be treated with extreme caution.”- https://novascotia.ca/natr/forestprotection/wildfire/bffsc/lessons/lesson3/diurnal.asp
With the help of our forecasting combined with out analytics, we can put out a fire risk forecast 7 days ahead of time, which should give workers and citizens plenty of time to reduce the potential risk of wild fire, also to pre-arrange equipment to the highest risk areas ahead of time incase of a fire should occur, then they would have the lowest response time and minimize as much damage as possible.
Governments, private home owners, and even large investment funds that invest in forestry would be affected by wild fire in many different ways. Investment funds that invests in forestry for their clients would have to take into consideration of wild fire risk, as wild fire does not only reduce their yearly yield but if it occurs, it would turn their investment to 0, thus having a tool to forecast and mitigate their risk on their investment is critical.
