The following table shows the different types of project types, highlighting their unique features and use cases.
| Snapshot | Max Fuel Loads | AWP Forecast | AWP Evaluation | BFRMP | Modelled Impact Time | Individual Treatment Comparison | Brigade Treatment Comparison |
Project goal | Assesses the current bush fire risk across the state | Assesses the maximum impact of bush fire risk across the state. | Assesses the efficiency of potential future Annual Works Plans across the state.
| Assesses the impact of bush fire mitigation undertaken the previous year. | Assesses factors that affect the bush fire risk in a BFMC to inform BFRMPs. | Assesses which ignitions could impact the asset of interest and the time to impact. | Assesses different treatment options to understand the differences in risk reduction. | Assesses different treatment options to understand the differences in risk reduction. |
