Nationwide Wildfire Potential Model

Teren's wildfire potential model is high-resolution, statistically validated and scientifically informed to better understand and evaluate wildfire risk.

• High-Resolution Data: Fine resolution (100-meter) precisely captures local variability to guide parcel-level decisions across all land use types.
• Statistically Validated: Validated against 20,000+ historical wildfires occurring between 2000-2021, and the model performantly explains 82.6% of historical variability. High predictive power enables confident decision making with consistent methodology across the nation.
• Scientifically Informed: Rooted in both ecosystem science and statistical analysis, the wildfire hazard potential map is accompanied by three additional layers: climate, topography, and fuels. These help the user interpret the science behind the hazard score for more confident decision making.
