This wildfire hazard potential (WHP) dataset represents an index that quantifies the relative potential for wildfire that may be difficult to control. WHP can be used as a measure to help prioritize where fuel treatments may be needed.
CAL WHP was calculated by following the methods established by Dillon et al. (2015) and Dillon (2018) while using higher-resolution inputs including 30-m CAL vegetation inputs (derived from LANDFIRE 2016), 30-m CAL fuel model outputs, 30-m CAL burn probability results, and 30-m CAL fire-effects flame-length probabilities from the WildEST wildfire behavior results. Please reference the CAL report for more detailed information. Raster resolution is 30m. Data finalized 1/31/2021.
