Modelling the probability of building fires

Original language description

Systematic spatial risk analysis plays a crucial role in preventing emergencies. In the Czech Republic, risk mapping is currently based on the risk accumulation principle, area vulnerability, and preparedness levels of Integrated Rescue System components. Expert estimates are used to determine risk levels for individual hazard types, while statistical modelling based on data from actual incidents and their possible causes is not used. Our model study, conducted in cooperation with the Fire Rescue Service of the Czech Republic as a model within the Liberec and Hradec Králové regions, presents an analytical procedure leading to the creation of building fire probability maps based on recent incidents in the studied areas and on building parameters. In order to estimate the probability of building fires, a prediction model based on logistic regression was used. Probability of fire calculated by means of model parameters and attributes of specific buildings can subsequently be visualized in
