Wildfire Analyst™ includes a set of new important technical approaches that increase the reality between the real fire spread and the Wildfire Analyst simulation results. These new technical approaches include the following features:
Allows the definition of several ignition points/lines, firebreaks and fuel models as simulation conditions change.
Allows the adjustment of fire front final speed for each fuel type.
Real time weather connections to weather stations and weather forecast data.
Key input maps and parameters (fuels moisture, wind, etc.) can be edited and modified in real time to account for real observed conditions
Definition and calculation of firebreaks in relation to their width and type (not as absolute barriers).
Uses high definition Wind fields based on finite elements, which fit the topography, and the roughness of fuels. Integrates weather prediction data and/or real time wind data.
