Presentation 1 Title: Defensible Space Inspections With Low Code Automated Reporting
Presentation 1 Speaker 1: Ryan Malhoski
Presentation 1 Abstract:
Wildfire has always been a concern in the west, especially in the Lake Tahoe area. Recently the city of South Lake Tahoe started a defensible space program and with grant funding has been able to hire 2 seasonal defensible space inspectors. Since their positions are seasonal, they have limited time to inspect the over 12,000 developed parcels within the city. Using ArcGIS Field Maps, Survey123, Reporting, and Web Hooks a low code solution was developed to inspect, create owner reports and mailing labels, while also reporting all inspections upward to CAL FIRE automatically.
Presentation 2 Title: How We Built a Homegrown Damage Assessment and Debris Removal Tracking Solution
Presentation 2 Speaker 1: Matt Lamborn
Presentation 2 Abstract:
Learn how damage assessment evolved from paper form data collection to GIS-centric collection and tracking at Napa County. With limited resources, GIS staff at Napa County leveraged ESRI software to capture and track damaged and destroyed buildings, sync parcel data with data collected in the field, and track the debris removal process during post-disaster recovery operations.
