ACME AtronOmatic, LLC is proposing development of an orbital data platform for improving household and community wildfire resilience. With a changing climate and near-urban environments, resilience requires access to actionable information about how to build, move, and/or fortify homes and communities: the proposed project would increase the resilience of stakeholders by clarifying through unique data the tradeoffs, risks, and likely outcomes when facing such decisions. The AI-enhanced hyperspectral measurements from ACME’s CubeSats (low-cost, miniaturized satellites), currently under development, provide insights about land and vegetation properties as they evolve on relevant length (10s of meters) and time (days) scales. With careful preflight validation and in-orbit calibration, these CubeSats may be used to generate dynamic risk maps for wildfire-related destructive forces that evolve at the same scales as the underlying phenomena. The risk maps, along with media outreach to contextualize how various risks may affect decisions, will be presented in ACME’s established market leading and free MyRadar application, providing a broad reach to over 13 million monthly active users. Specifically, we propose delivering: • dynamic wildland-urban risk factor maps that incorporate ACME’s CubeSat data • data feeds via our APIs and mobile applications that provide actionable information for sta
