Wildland Fire Modeling

Wildland fire modeling involves using computer simulations to predict how wildfires will spread and behave. It considers factors like vegetation type, terrain, weather, and wind to forecast fire movement, intensity, and potential impact. This helps firefighters plan strategies, allocate resources, and implement effective containment measures. By understanding possible fire scenarios, models improve safety and decision-making during wildfire events, ultimately aiming to protect lives, property, and natural resources.
