Around 100,00o properties in the state were identified as being at high or very high risk of bushfires, and the campaign will target these families to encourage them to be prepared and to know what to do if they receive a warning.
Minister for police, fire and emergency services Jack Dempsey said the Rural Fire Service Queensland had used sophisticated mapping technology to identify the properties: “We want all Queensland families to remain safe this bushfire season and our mapping technology has allowed us to directly target properties at risk.”
The campaign is running across radio, online and social media with the campaign directing the public to a dedicated website.
