Abstract The delineation of the Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI) is fundamental for wildfire risk management, yet it is highly sensitive to the underlying building data used. Global building datasets offer unprecedented coverage but may introduce biases by including different types of built-up structures, potentially leading to an overestimation of exposure and a misallocation of critical resources.
