Geometry Type: null
Description: This spatial dataset was produced with the Wildfire Exposure Simulation Tool (WildEST), a cloud-based geospatial fire behavior characteristic simulation system. WildEST performs multiple deterministic simulations under a range of weather types (wind speed, wind direction, fuel moisture content) and weights those results based on weather type probabilities (WTP).This dataset is a raster representing Suppression Difficulty Index (SDI) across the project area. Wildfire Suppression Difficulty Index is a quantitative rating of relative difficulty in performing fire control work. SDI factors in topography, fuels, expected fire behavior under severe fire weather conditions, firefighter line production rates in various fuel types, and accessibility (distance from roads/trails) to assess relative suppression difficulty.Additional information on the SDI can be found in the following references:Rodriguez y Silva, F.; O'Connor, C.D.; Thompson, M.P.; Molina, J.R.; Calkin, D.E. 2020.
