Overview

Originally forked from Cell2Fire, thanks to the work of Cristobal Pais, Jaime Carrasco, David Martell, David L. Woodruff, Andres Weintraub, et al.

Cell2Fire is a 2D-grid-based forest and wildland landscape fire simulator, focused on large scale areas and fast simulations to provide robust risk spatial analytics, harnessing c++ parallel computation methods.

Current Version:

  • W bundles Spain, Chile and Canada fuel model behaviors!
