Santa Rosa Hazard Fuel Risk Assessment
The objective of this project was to identify, classify and prioritize areas within and surrounding the city of Santa Rosa, Califiornia that represent the highest risk related to wildland fire in the urban interface.
Quick Maps: These maps are provided within the Risk Assessment documentation. They are available here for download in PDF document format that allows the user to Zoom in with great detail, while retaining the high resolution qualities of the aerial imagery used as the basis for the assessment. (Note: some of the files are 12 to 14 Mb in size due to the aerial images, be patient with your upload...thanks).
