Wildfire Science & Technology Commons

Open Collaborations for a Wildfire Resilient Future

Introducing the Wildfire Science & Technology Commons

We believe that avoiding devastating wildfires requires urgent, innovative, and collaborative solutions. The Wildfire Science & Technology Commons is a bold new initiative designed to accelerate technological innovations for wildfire management and mitigation. We are building a community platform around open data, cutting-edge science, AI, and shared knowledge.

Save the Date: Wildfire Science & Technology Commons Launch Event

Join us on October 28th, 2024 at 1 pm Pacific for the official launch of the Wildfire Science & Technology Commons!

Register and join us in this launch event to learn about the activities planned within this NIST-supported effort and how you can join this open collaboration as we work towards a wildfire resilient future.

Our Mission and Vision

Our mission is to bring people together to break down the barriers that currently exist between wildfire-related data, models, and tools. Today these resources are siloed, which slows down innovation. We have the opportunity to create a seamless, smart platform to enable solutions that revolutionize how we understand, respond to, and prevent wildfires.

Together, we can protect lives, property, and ecosystems
from the ever-growing threat of wildfires.
