野地火灾决策支持系统 (WFDSS) 是一种新的决策支持工具,旨在支持美国个别火灾的风险知情决策。 WFDSS 访问国家天气数据和预报、火灾行为预测、经济评估、烟雾管理评估和景观数据库,以有效地制定信息并将其应用于决策过程。作为改善火灾管理的一种手段,基于风险的决策变得越来越重要,并提供了大量机会,有利于自然和社区资源保护、管理响应有效性、消防员资源使用和暴露,以及可能的灭火成本。本文回顾了 WFDSS 的发展、结构和功能,以及它如何有助于提高决策的灵活性和敏捷性,从而提高火灾管理计划的有效性。
A new decision support tool, the Wildland Fire Decision Support System (WFDSS) has been developed to support risk-informed decision-making for individual fires in the United States. WFDSS accesses national weather data and forecasts, fire behavior prediction, economic assessment, smoke management assessment, and landscape databases to efficiently formulate and apply information to the decision making process. Risk-informed decision-making is becoming increasingly important as a means of improving fire management and offers substantial opportunities to benefit natural and community resource protection, management response effectiveness, firefighter resource use and exposure, and, possibly, suppression costs. This paper reviews the development, structure, and function of WFDSS, and how it contributes to increased flexibility and agility in decision making, leading to improved fire management program effectiveness.
