CISESS Seed Grant: Wildfire Smoke Early Warning: Using Earth Observations to Improve Health Interventions

This CISESS Seed Grant Project is to develop a wildfire smoke early-warning system using Earth observations, modelled data, and ground measurements to enable timely deployment of clinical support resources to high-risk areas in Maryland. Such a system would have clear benefits to mitigate health care impacts as a result of wildfire smoke events. The alert system will be developed in partnership with UMD School of Medicine and UMD Institute for Health Computing (IHC).
