How Siskiyou County Manages Communication Zones for Wildfire Evacuations
Evacuation zones only work when agencies can trust them under pressure.
In this webinar, Adam Heilman and Brandon Konicke show how Siskiyou County uses Genasys Protect, ArcGIS, and local cooperator input to review, refine, and manage evacuation communication zones across one of California’s largest and most wildfire-impacted counties.
Viewers will see how Siskiyou County built a repeatable process for keeping zones accurate, actionable, and ready for real incidents. The discussion offers practical guidance agencies can apply to reduce over-alerting, improve evacuation coordination, and deliver clearer emergency communications to the right people at the right time.
