The best method of mitigating the likelihood of homes is to decrease the flammability of the surrounding areas. Spatio-temporal flammability data improves planning in the wildland urban interface. Ignition index could be evaluated using field flammability data, mainly in wildland urban interface. Some species should be considered fire-wise species for landscaping use in the wildland-urban interface. Improving the quality of ignition cartography is a high priority for efficient allocation of limited economic resources.
