Wildfire Risk to Communities Housing Unit Risk (Image Service)

Metadata Updated: June 21, 2023

This dataset is the Housing Unit Risk (HURisk) raster for the United States. It is part of the data publication Wildfire Risk to Communities: Spatial datasets of wildfire risk for populated areas in the United States. HURisk is an index that integrates all four primary elements of wildfire risk - likelihood, intensity, susceptibility, and exposure - on pixels where housing unit density > 0. It is conceptually similar to Risk to Potential Structures (i.e., Risk to Homes) in the companion data publication (Scott et al. 2020), but also incorporates housing unit count. Pixels where the housing unit density raster is zero are NoData in the HURisk raster.Metadata and Downloads.Note:�Pixel values in this image service have been altered from the original raster dataset due to data requirements in web services. The service is intended primarily for data visualization. Relative values and spatial patterns have been largely preserved in the service, but users are encouraged to download the source data for quantitative analysis.
