Thu, May 07
|Virtual Event hosted on Google Meet
How do you take wildfire threat data and make it meaningful at the community level? In the second of a two-part series, Frontera explores how threat data is extrapolated into risk, how visualization brings complex datasets to life for broader audiences, and how LiDAR improves predictive modelling.

About the event
This is the second webinar in a two-part series — Examining Wildfire Threat Data: Provincial, Regional, and Community Perspectives. Where Webinar 1 examined wildfire threat modelling at the provincial scale, Webinar 2 brings that data closer to home.
In this 90-minute session, Holden Payne and Nicholas Soverel of Frontera Forest Solutions explore how provincial wildfire threat data is applied at the community level — including how threat data is extrapolated into risk, and what that means for local planning and decision-making. Presenters will also cover visualization techniques that make complex wildfire datasets accessible to broader audiences, and discuss how LiDAR integration is advancing predictive wildfire threat and risk modelling.
Full session details and additional resources will be announced soon. Register now to secure your spot.
