The purpose of this data is to show the average annual fire risk across the main Hawaiian islands for uses such, but not limited to, natural resource management, community wildfire preparedness, and emergency preparedness. Note that the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa or Dr. Trauernicht will not bear any responsibility for the consequences of using this dataset, which are entirely the responsibility of the user. The data do not offer actual quantification of the potential exposure of homes to the ignition, spread, and intensity of wildfires or embers produced by wildfires. Although the dataset and subsequent analyses may indicate general wildfire patterns for a given area, the actual risk to homes and property can deviate based on the characteristics of the site around an individual home, community, or natural resource area, as well as real-time weather conditions, which the model does not take into account.
