| description:
|
An estimate of the number of people residing in areas with different wildfire exposure levels. Exposure levels are grouped into three categories: Primary, Secondary, and Low-to-No Exposure.
Population in Primary Exposure areas are immediately nearby burnable land cover. Mitigation efforts to reduce fire intensity and ember production in this may be warranted. Buildings in this zone would benefit from hardening to resist ignition.
Population in Secondary Exposure areas may be impacted by lofted embers or by home-to-home spread even though they are not immediately located with vegetation types classified as burnable. Buildings in this zone would benefit from hardening measures to resist ignition, but defensible space is usually not required due to the heavily developed nature of the zone.
Population in Low-to-No Exposure zones are generally in highly developed, urban areas beyond the distance where flames and home-to-home spread is likely. Smoke and evacuations could still impact this area. |
