What is Farsite ?
"FARSITE is a fire growth simulation model. It uses spatial information on topography and fuels along with weather and wind files.
FARSITE incorporates the existing models for surface fire, crown fire, spotting, post-frontal combustion, and fire acceleration into a 2-dimensional fire growth model.
FARSITE users must have the support of a geographic information system (GIS) to use FARSITE because it requires spatial landscape information to run."
