Greater Hobart Bushfire Exposure Index
2024 Greater Hobart Bushfire Exposure Index
The Greater Hobart Bushfire Exposure Index is a web platform designed to visualise bushfire severity and exposure across the Greater Hobart region. It helps local governments and communities identify areas of high exposure and prioritise long-term preparedness efforts.
Funded by the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA), the platform was originally developed in partnership with Glenorchy Council, the City of Hobart, and Kingborough Council. The platform has now been expanded to include the council areas of Clarence, Sorell, and Brighton.
