|Description
|RISICO model is a fire danger rating system that is adapted to the vegetation cover of the Mediterranean (Fiorucci et al., 2005; 2007; 2008; 2011). RISICO integrates meteorological observations and forecasts from a NWP Limited Area Model (LAM) and ECMWF-IFS with vegetation cover and topography data. Behaviour of fire among different fuel types and effect of slope are considered to forecast fire spread beyond the weather. It is based on similar principles as the Canadian Fire Weather Index (FWI) in GEFF, but with a more detailed spatial and temporal scale, and process description. Forecasting experience revealed that it is important to take into account the persistency of very low fine dead fuel moisture content within 1-2 days.<br>
RISICO Europe id fed by the meteorological output of the global NWP model GFS 0.5° and the space-time resolution is 6 hourly and 40km with a lead time of 10 days.
Three modules are embedded within the RISICO architecture, which correspond to the main outputs of the system.
First, it is necessary to represent the dynamic of the dead fine fuel moisture, which is directly related with the fire ignition probability. Then, the potential fire spread model has to be considered in order to quantitatively describe the potential behaviour of a wildfire, in absence of any extinguishing action. The scheme in the figure above is applied to each cell in which the entire spatial domain is discretized. The spatial resolution of the output of the RISICO model span from 10km to 50m depending by the heterogeneity of the considered area and by the availability of high resolution input data. The input to the model are then:

* Meteorological model (Solar radiation; Temperature, Humidity, Precipitation, Wind velocity)
* Ground observations (Solar radiation; Temperature, Humidity, Precipitation, Wind velocity, Leaf area index)
* Static information (Digital Elevation Model, Land cover, Slope, Aspect)<br>

+|EMS - Rapid Mapping products<br>
-RISICO Europe id fed by the meteorological output of the global NWP model GFS 0.5°  and the space-time resolution is 6 hourly and 40km with a lead time of 10 days.
+This service consists of the on-demand and fast provision (hours-days) of geospatial information. This information supports emergency management activities immediately following an emergency event. The service is based on the acquisition, processing and analysis, in rapid mode, of satellite imagery and other geospatial raster and vector data sources. The products are standardised following a set of parameters the user can choose when requesting the service. The user can choose between three different map types (Reference, Delineation, Grading) and two prodution modes (service levels). The maps can be requested individually (i.e. Delineation map only) or in combination with other map types (i.e. Delineation and Grading). Maps can be requested in service level 1 (SL1) or service level 5 (SL5). In the case of service level 1 (SL1), maps are provided within some hours after delivery and quality approval of imagery (9h for Reference maps, 12h for Delineation and Grading maps). For service level 5 (SL5), all map types are typically provided within five working days (SL5) (the delivery time of SL5 can be adapted to user needs). Updates of the initial map may be requested as Monitoring maps.
-Three modules are embedded within the RISICO architecture, which correspond to the main outputs of the system.
+The product delivery package of Rapid Mapping contains a series of ready to print maps with different resolutions and formats and a vector data package. The Product User Manual gives a detailed overview of the product characteristics and of the vector package in particular. <br>
