Downloading

When the "File Download" window opens, by default the folder has the same Exposure Analysis name you selected when running an EA. If you prefer to change the name for use on your computer you can click on the name field and type a different name, this does not change the name in IFTDSS.

name field can be left as is, or you may enter a new name.

The individual files within the downloaded zip folder are prefixed with the original or modified <Exposure Analysis Name>. Once extracted, the folder includes:

Layers (also known as bands) included in the GeoTIFF are listed in the table below.

Band number and units for outputs within IFTDSS and contained in output files.
Band # Output Brief Description Map Studio Units Report Units Download Units
1 Burn Probability A B The likelihood that a fire will burn a given point on the landscape (expressed as a value between 0 and 1). See Burn Probability for more detail. proportion proportion proportion
2 Conditional Flame Length A B The mean flame length of all the fires that burn a given point on the landscape. See Conditional Flame Length for more detail. feet feet feet
3 Integrated Hazard A B The combination of Burn Probability and Conditional Flame Length ranging from lowest probability/lowest conditional flame lengths to highest probability/highest conditional flame lengths. See Integrated Hazard for more detail. unitless unitless unitless
4 Sub-HVRA 1 Rasterized version of Sub-HVRA, where the band name is <Primary HVRA Category>-<Sub-HVRA Short Name>. Where the Sub-HVRA is present the value is 1, where it is absent the values is NoData. See Exposure Analysis Technical Documentation for more detail. unitless unitless unitless
n Sub-HVRA n... Each subsequent Sub-HVRA you use in the analysis will have its own band, there can be up to 100 Sub-HVRAs total within a GeoTIFF. unitless unitless unitless

A Non-burnable pixels are indicated with a value of -1.

B Burnable, but not burned pixels, are indicated with a value of 0.
