This webinar will delve into the role of Geographic Information System (GIS) technology in enhancing wildfire preparedness and evacuation planning. Participants will learn how GIS can be utilized to map fire-prone areas, model  evacuation routes, and manage real-time data during an emergency. Expert  speakers will share case studies and best practices, demonstrating how GIS tools can improve coordination among emergency responders and ensure  residents receive timely evacuation orders. Join us to understand how  leveraging GIS technology can save lives and property during wildfire events.
