2025 January ESIP Meeting
We are a home for Earth science data and computing professionals. Our sessions bring together the community for hands-on, interdisciplinary deep dives as we explore "Innovation to Impact" this year. Learn more about ESIP: esipfed.org
Thursday January 23, 2025 1:30pm - 3:00pm EST
The ESIP Wildfire cluster would like to invite data practitioners that are working to create hazard mitigation activities that involve trusted data and AI that can be leveraged to inform communities and demonstrate best practices that are user centered. Wildfires can happen anywhere as we have seen in New Jersey and New York. We want to build situational awareness and collaboration opportunities with emerging and established organizations and people in the wildfire space. The conversation starts here and continues during our monthly meetings so we can bring Innovations to Impact.

This session will focus on innovative data services that are improving wildfire outcomes. Over the last decade there has been a significant investment in data products to support wildfire resilience efforts. Wildfire resilience is achieved through efficient actions in prefire hazard mitigation, incident response, and post fire environmental management. Each of these phases has a distinct set of user stories.There is a need to disseminate operational knowledge to broader communities of interest including fire practitioners and the public at large. Creating shared, actionable situational awareness based on trusted sources will help communities prepare for emerging fire management challenges.

 
Value to Session Participants: Session participants will get perspective on the user centered design approach that several leading wildfire decision support data services have taken.
