Vibrant Planet’s Post

The increasing rate and severity of wildfires has become a topic of increasing concern. In our latest NatCat webinar, we’ll look at how we’ve developed tools and models to support the complex task of identifying and quantifying potential wildfire losses. Using case studies and real-life examples, we’ll show how you can manage and mitigate the associated risks.

It was great to get out of the office this week and complete the scene processing components of my Wild Fire Investigation assessment. Being able to read indicators and track a fires path to determine origin and cause gives me a whole new perspective of fire. A big shout out to Mark Fullagar, Jason Booth, Greg from QFRS, NEAC Mitigation Teams (c/o Nathan Cameron ), and RFS FICU for making this assessment happen. Deanne Bailey and William O'Brien for partnering with me on this journey. Now to make time to write some reports. #itsaprocess #WeDontKnowWhatWeDontKnow #knowledgesharing

👋 That's a wrap on Common Ground Alliance's Summer Committee Summit -- here are my key takeaways on getting to #50in5: 📉 #Data leads the way -- and the #DamagePreventionInstitute is poised to be at the forefront -- but we need cleaner, more portable data shared across the industry to make real progress 🗺️ #GISmapping of underground facilities has to be a top industry priority -- this helps us attack locating efficiency and accuracy and restore confidence in the #811system 🤔 #BehaviorChange through compelling storytelling is the name of the game if we want to reduce our top damage root cause (failure to notify 811 prior to digging) Read our recap for more info on this week's activities: https://lnkd.in/dK-3hRyd

A helpful summary and answer to the question of why I would be studying fire management in the Netherlands🇳🇱 The Netherlands might not be associated with fire like Mediterranean countries, but the land and water management is 🧁 FirEUrisk

Sometimes, you learn a lot from your mistakes 🫣 An unfortunate meeting between one of our desanders and a low bridge was one such moment. When the unfortunate message about the destroyed system was relayed to our headquarters in Bergen, many of us thought: Now what? Read about how this crisis brought out the best in our company and improved our game! #FourPhase #OperationalExcellence #SolidsExperts

HAPPY NEW YEAR!! 2024 is going to be excellent. May we go forth and develop technologies that are coherent with practice, science, and context. Along the way, may we read from books not obviously connected with emergency management and wildfire to broaden the horizons of our understanding and further develop practice. #emergencymanagement #crisismanagement #wildfire
