MULTI-CRITERIA WILDFIRE RISK MAP

×

WELCOME !

The fire season is off. The next FWI / Multi-criteria wildire risk map will be uploaded on 1st March

This multi-criteria forest wildfire risk interactive map provides a visual overview of the situation in forests across Canada.

It differs from the fire-weather index map (FWI) by taking into account in the calculation, among others, the specificities of the land cover (especially the structure and characteristics of the forest)
This project is carried out in collaboration with and with the financial support of Natural Resources Canada (Canadian Forest Service)
