    Precisely
    Precisely provides San Bernardino County with pro bono access to its Wildfire Risk solution, offering a detailed assessment of wildfire severity and probability in the region. Image shows analysis spanning the city's edge to the mountain rim and throughout the desert areas of the County. Color-coding on the image represents different types of threats. Purple areas denote locations where embers are the primary threat (which typically happens in transition zones between wildlands and urban areas). Dark red areas indicate where there is high densities of homes or communities which have been rated as “very high” for risk. The muted colors show wildland areas where homes are more widely spaced out or indicate areas of the National Forest.
