Awards Issued Prior to January 20, 2025, Were Funded Under Previous Administrations and May Not Reflect the Priorities and Policies of the Current Administration. by Almost Any Available Metric, Wildfires Are Becoming an Increasing Threat in the United States Every Year--number of Fires, Number of Acres Burned, Size of Fires, Value of Property Destroyed, and Number of Lives Lost. One Factor That Exacerbates the Impact of Wildfires Is Many of Them Are Occurring at the Wildland-urban Interface (wui), the Zone of Transition Where Human Development Encroaches on Unoccupied Land. as Human Development Continues to Sprawl, an Increasing Number of Structures and Lives Are at Risk. Early Detection of Wildfires and Accurate Determination of Where Fires Are and Where They Go Is Essential for Effective Firefighting and Public Safety. as Other Factors Like Climate Change, Drought, and Extreme Weather Appear to Become More Pronounced, the Frequency and Severity of Wildfires Will Continue to Get Worse.the Geofire Real-time Wildfire Alert System (WAS) Will Be Built, Tested, and Deployed in This Project to Definitively Answer Where a Wildfire Is Right Now and Where It Is Heading Next. This Is Accomplished by Using a High-density Sensor Network to Track the Location and Growth of Individual Wildfire Cells in Real Time. When Deployed in Target Areas Such as Residential Neighborhoods at the Wui, Industrial and Commercial Campuses, or High-voltage Power Lines, the System Delivers Community and Asset Protection at an Unprecedented Scale.
