On-line modelling tool for extreme fire behaviour and smoke emission and dispersion

The main purpose of this deliverable is to describe the developed numerical modelling system that it will based on the most recent scientific/technical advances on fire spread, smoke emission and dispersion models as well as mathematical functions to estimate human exposure and health effects (on population and firefighters).

Simulated fire and vegetation dynamics at three spatial scales

Changes in future fire regimes will be characterized from projected fire variables (fire ignitions, burned area, fire intensity and fire-related carbon emissions) at the ET scale and contextualized using available EO data. A seasonal forecast system will quantify future changes in fire regimes and the fire-propagation potential at the ET scale and for the DA Sardinia. Analysis of changes in future fire extremes will be based on projections from the fire-enabled DGVMs, fine-fuel moisture models and atmospheric-stability metrics.

Geodatabases and Exposure & Vulnerability products in the GIS project platform

The objective of the deliverable is the integration of the inputs from tasks A1.2.1, A1.2.2 and A1.2.4. The result will be the incorporation in the GIS platform of the geographical data and information that allow making a necessary characterization to dynamically map the exposure from global level to WUI level.

Mobile App for fire risk information

This prototype application for mobile phones will aim to facilitate fire risk information to citizens in fire pronto fire prone areas. It will be included a user-friendly interface with variables related to fire danger and vulnerability. It will be tested in the Demo regions.

Implementation of prototype datasets and services with existing and future systems

We will undertake a review of the existing systems and fire risk data portals including EFFIS, DRMKC and the Copernicus services. The review will identify the most appropriate formats and contents for integration with these portals and services and to guide the development of the public cooperative platform. The activity will result in a report with a roadmap illustrating where, when and how results from FirEUrisk and future projects can or will be integrated with legacy systems such as EFFIS, DRMKC and Copernicus.

Geodatabases and Danger products in the GIS project platform

The objective of the deliverable is the integration of the inputs from tasks A1.1.1, A1.1.3, A1.1.4 and A1.1.5. The result will be the incorporation in the GIS platform of forecasts and high-resolution wind modelling together with the fuel humidity in order to have an optimal prediction of the existing hazard indices and drought codes.

Initial communication bundle

An initial communication bundle will be developed with a view to presenting the project, its goals, partners, activities planned and expected impact to a broad audience. This bundle will include multiformat communication material including a motion graphics animation, poster infographics and a leaflet. All these materials will incorporate a distinctive visual identity for the consortium and project developed for public exposure of the proposal and portray a memorable image of FirEUrisk.

Map of LMS options at European scale

Map (and associated spatial dataset) at ET scale indicating in which areas what LMS would fit best. This is done by accounting for the environmental/ecological trade-offs identified as well as the socio-economic constraints and possibilities (D2.3) and linking these to spatial proxy variables that are indicative for the contextual conditions using high resolution spatial datasets (i.e., of the Copernicus data service).
