Wildfire Hazard Maps
Residents in Anchorage, Fairbanks and Whitehorse, Yukon can explore wildfire hazards in their communities using these maps developed by the AURA project. The maps illustrate the potential for wildfire risk based on the ability of vegetation to carry a fire and throw embers. The underlying vegetation is from Landsat imagery (30m) from the NASA ABoVE program.
