摘要

越来越多地使用可视化技术作为与公众和专业受众进行野火交流的工具,特别是三维视频和虚拟或增强现实技术,这引发了人们对其在不同社会和时间背景下的道德使用问题的讨论。现有的研究主要集中在火灾事件发生前对此类可视化技术的使用上,并且通常使用假设场景来激励主动缓解或探索决策,而忽略了那些已经经历过火灾事件的人能够提供的见解,而这些见解能够更广泛地提高用户的参与度和对野火可视化技术的理解。我们对受科罗拉多州 2020 年东麻烦和 2021 年马歇尔火灾影响的 101 名居民和专业人士进行了半结构化访谈,使用平板电脑上的火灾事件三维模型可视化作为讨论工具,了解火灾行为如何影响疏散体验和决策。我们提供了通过经验收集到的见解,这些见解可以为在火灾管理和公共安全交叉领域工作的科学家、管理者和传播者合乎道德地使用野火可视化提供参考。两项案例研究的研究设计、访谈讨论和实地观察都揭示了在使用三维可视化技术时采取细致入微、反应迅速的方法的重要性,并强调要执行相关规程,确保对目标受众造成伤害的风险降到最低。我们分享了将可视化作为与公众和专业受众交流的工具的五个注意事项,扩展了现有的火灾后空间研究:(1)确定可视化的使用是否真正有益于用户;(2)通过结合当地价值将用户与可视化联系起来;(3)提供有关模型不确定性的背景;(4)以满足用户需求的方式设计和分享可视化;(5)认识到分享野火可视化可能产生的情感影响。这项研究表明,考虑用户情感和心理健康的研究设计和规划非常重要。对于确实希望参与可视化的用户,本技术说明提供了指导,以确保能够产生新的讨论和知识的有意义的理解。我们提倡通过可视化方式进行交流,这种交流应考虑到当地的具体情况,并为用户提供机会,让他们参与到适合自己的水平中去,同时建议可视化方式应成为有意义对话的催化剂,而不是结论性的信息来源。

Five social and ethical considerations for using wildfire visualizations as a communication tool
Increased use of visualizations as wildfire communication tools with public and professional audiences—particularly 3D videos and virtual or augmented reality—invites discussion of their ethical use in varied social and temporal contexts. Existing studies focus on the use of such visualizations prior to fire events and commonly use hypothetical scenarios intended to motivate proactive mitigation or explore decision-making, overlooking the insights that those who have already experienced fire events can provide to improve user engagement and understanding of wildfire visualizations more broadly. We conducted semi-structured interviews with 101 residents and professionals affected by Colorado’s 2020 East Troublesome and 2021 Marshall Fires, using 3D model visualizations of fire events on tablets as a discussion tool to understand how fire behavior influenced evacuation experiences and decision-making. We provide empirically gathered insights that can inform the ethical use of wildfire visualizations by scientists, managers, and communicators working at the intersection of fire management and public safety. Study design, interview discussions, and field observations from both case studies reveal the importance of nuanced and responsive approaches for the use of 3D visualizations, with an emphasis on the implementation of protocols that ensure the risk of harm to the intended audience is minimal. We share five considerations for use of visualizations as communication tools with public and professional audiences, expanding existing research into post-fire spaces: (1) determine whether the use of visualizations will truly benefit users; (2) connect users to visualizations by incorporating local values; (3) provide context around model uncertainty; (4) design and share visualizations in ways that meet the needs of the user; (5) be cognizant of the emotional impacts that sharing wildfire visualizations can have. This research demonstrates the importance of study design and planning that considers the emotional and psychological well-being of users. For users that do wish to engage with visualizations, this technical note provides guidance for ensuring meaningful understandings that can generate new discussion and knowledge. We advocate for communication with visualizations that consider local context and provide opportunities for users to engage to a level that suits them, suggesting that visualizations should serve as catalysts for meaningful dialogue rather than conclusive information sources.

期刊介绍: Fire Ecology is the international scientific journal supported by the Association for Fire Ecology. Fire Ecology publishes peer-reviewed articles on all ecological and management aspects relating to wildland fire. We welcome submissions on topics that include a broad range of research on the ecological relationships of fire to its environment, including, but not limited to: Ecology (physical and biological fire effects, fire regimes, etc.) Social science (geography, sociology, anthropology, etc.) Fuel Fire science and modeling Planning and risk management Law and policy Fire management Inter- or cross-disciplinary fire-related topics Technology transfer products.
