TriData Study: 10 Years Later

The Wildland Firefighter Safety Awareness study, otherwise known as the TriData Study, has had significant impacts on the wildland fire community since its release in the late '90s. Researchers queried approximately 1,000 firefighters and presented a three-phase study with:

• 86 goals
• 200 implementation strategies

Over the next week we'll focus the TriData Study featuring the four-part video series created by the Wildland Fire Lessons Learned Center.

Check out our introduction to the series today and stay tuned for what a few fire leaders have to say about the study and its impacts on wildland fire next week. This is something that every fire leader should know.
