USFS Wildfire Risk to Communities

USDA Forest Service Wildfire Risk to Communities (wildfirerisk.org): 30 m raster wildfire risk values (burn probability, risk to homes, wildfire consequence, hazard potential, exposure type, flame length) for a GeoJSON point or polygon, the containing county, community and tribal area with their percentile ranks, place search, per-place summaries and rankings within a county, state or the nation. US only (CONUS, Alaska, Hawaii).

1Request
objectRequired

GeoJSON (RFC 7946, WGS84, [lon, lat]) Point, Polygon, MultiPolygon, or a Feature wrapping one. Rings must be closed; altitude is ignored; a FeatureCollection is refused (send one place per call); geometries crossing the antimeridian are refused; at most 500 vertices and 250 km2. Any other member (bbox, Feature properties, id) passes through unread. Invalid input is reported as invalid_input with a JSON pointer and a stable code: missing_type, unsupported_type, feature_collection, missing_coordinates, not_a_position, latitude (with a swapped-order hint), longitude, ring_too_short, ring_not_closed, too_many_vertices, too_large, antimeridian, outside_coverage.

boolean

Also look up the intersecting county, community and tribal area polygons (three FeatureServer queries). Default true.

string[]

Image service layers to read. Default: burn_probability, risk_to_potential_structures, conditional_risk_to_potential_structures, wildfire_hazard_potential, exposure_type. Separate values with commas.
