Thousands of structure fires occur in Canada annually, causing fatalities, injuries, and property loss. Most fire-related deaths occur in residential settings, with many of those deaths occurring in homes without working smoke alarms. 

Understanding where risks are in the community improves decision-making and maximizes the impact of mitigation activities. Implementing a location-based method to identify, prioritize, mitigate, and monitor risk maximizes a fire department’s impact and leads to a safer community.
