Abstract
Methods, non-transitory computer-readable media, and property analysis systems are disclosed that extract vegetation location information from overhead and LIDAR images associated with a geographic location. The images are aligned based on the extracted vegetation information. Models are applied to the aligned images based on vegetation height information extracted from the LIDAR images. A graph is then generated based on a result of the application of the models. The graph represents a relationship between vegetation, one or more buildings, and one or more fire pathways associated with the geographic location. A wildfire risk score generated based on the graph is then output for the buildings via a GUI. Thus, the disclosed technology applies wildfire spread models and graphs to vegetation and buildings identified in aligned overhead and LIDAR imagery to provide relatively accurate wildfire risk assessment to insurers and homeowners and thereby facilitate informed decision-making and preventative measures.
