A big-scale, grid, forest fire simulator; parallel and fast (c++) nevertheless with a friendly graphical user interface for QGIS.
Originally forked from Cell2Fire, thanks to the work of Cristobal Pais, Jaime Carrasco, David Martell, David L. Woodruff, Andres Weintraub, et al.
This fire spread simulator, supports 3 fire models:
As Cell2Fire: i) the landscape is characterized as a grid, in which every cell has the same size, and the necessary information to simulate fire spread, i.e. fuel type, elevation and ignition probability, among others; ii) exploits parallel computation methods which allows users to run large-scale simulations in short periods of time; iii) the fires spread within each cell is assumed to be elliptical; and iv) it includes powerful statistical, graphical output, and spatial analysis features to facilitate the display and analysis of projected fire growth.
Installation, usage, specifications available by reading the friendly manual here.
