INCA WFS® SelfGuarding
A complete solution to wildfire safety
INCA WFS® SelfGuarding is an integrated wildfire protection concept built around four coordinated stages: Predict, Prevent, Prepare and Protect. Together, they create a complete approach that begins with understanding risk and continues through preparation to physical protection when fire threatens.
By combining INCA WFS® for Predict and Prevent with INCA WFS net® for Prepare and Protect, SelfGuarding brings intelligence, preparedness and physical protection together in one coordinated solution.
Predict
Understand the risk before the fire
The first step is understanding where and when wildfire risk is developing. INCA WFS® brings together information from sensors and other data sources to support monitoring, risk assessment and situational awareness.
This gives operators a better basis for understanding changing conditions and preparing before a wildfire becomes an immediate threat.
Prevent
Reduce the risk before it becomes a threat
Prevention is about acting on what we know. By monitoring changing conditions and identifying areas of increased risk, INCA WFS® supports earlier action and better-informed decisions.
The objective is to reduce the probability and potential consequences of wildfire before physical protection becomes necessary.
Prepare
Put protection in place before the fire arrives
When wildfire risk can no longer be eliminated, preparation becomes critical. INCA WFS net® can be prepared and deployed around vulnerable areas, buildings and infrastructure before the fire reaches them.
SelfGuarding can create multiple layers of protection – from the surrounding landscape and perimeter to the building itself and critical assets.
Protect
Create a physical barrier when fire threatens
INCA WFS net® provides the physical fire and heat protection at the heart of the Protect stage. It can be used around buildings, infrastructure and other critical assets to create a final line of defence when wildfire approaches.
Protection can be applied across several layers – Landscape, Perimeter, Building and Critical Asset – depending on what needs to be protected.
One system. Multiple layers of protection.
SelfGuarding brings the four stages together as one coordinated approach. INCA WFS® helps Predict and Prevent. INCA WFS net® helps Prepare and Protect.
Together, they enable wildfire protection to begin before the flames arrive – and continue all the way to the physical protection of what matters.
