As you might know, FirEUrisk Project (EU H2020 – https://fireurisk.eu/project/) is promoting a series of training events to support the sharing and the inception of the project’s results.
The second online training event (https://fireurisk.eu/events/) will take place on February 22nd (10.30h-12h CET) and will focus on mapping the wildland-urban interface (WUI). The online training will be hosted
by Prof. Avi Bar-Massada from the University of Haifa (Israel).
During the training, attendees will learn the current state-of-the-art in WUI mapping, discussing the rationale behind different mapping approaches,
the pros and cons of each strategy and its data requirements. Participants will view an example of mapping the WUI in a single demonstration region and acquire knowledge to create WUI maps for their region of interest to contribute to better fire management and policies to reduce fire risk to human lives and property.
