First, by combining spatial data of ignitions and fuels hazards they create a new
map layer, termed fire susceptibility. The fire susceptibility map ranks areas with the highest hazards and most
ignitions and all other combinations down to areas with the lowest hazards and fewest ignitions. Second, they use dwelling
densities to identify the wildland urban interface. By integrating this information they are able to assist fire
agencies identify the strategic location and objectively prioritize projects.
