These can be summed to obtain the annualized burn probability. The process continues for the specified number of years, which produces a probability distribution of intensities. For each day in each year the ignitions are stochastically generated and the growth and behavior of resulting wildfires are simulated as they burn across the landscape. Assembly and processing of historical weather observations (WIMS, FireFamilyPlus) Using these datasets, the weather data are analyzed to produce a large number of synthetic ‘years’ comprising daily weather sequences. Assembly and processing of historical fire occurrence data (Fire Occurrence Database) 3. Assembly of geospatial landscape and terrain data, typically from LANDFIRE 2. The FSim simulation process involves the following: 1. Changes in risk resulting from fuel management activities (e.g.Summaries of wildfire transmission: defining a “fireshed” – the surrounding area that a fire can start and affect a particular location or asset and a “fireplain” – the areas that can be affected by fires starting in a given location.The transmission of fire from the start locations to the points of final impact.Fire size distributions and geospatial event sets (polygons of all simulated fires).Annualized expected impact of fire on values or assets.homes, habitat, watersheds) using their susceptibility at each intensity level to perform quantitative geospatial risk analyses. The distribution of intensity can be combined with assets or values (e.g. The purpose of this research is to develop a practical method of quantifying geospatial wildfire impacts, including annual probabilities of burning and fireline intensity distributions at any point on the landscape. Effects of large fire suppression on fire duration and size are also simulated. FSim simulates the growth and behavior of hundreds of thousands of fire events for risk analysis across large land areas using geospatial data on historical fire occurrence, weather, terrain, and fuel conditions. Wildfire simulation is the primary means of estimating these, including the frequency distribution of large fire events. Quantitative wildfire risk analysis requires complete geospatial coverage of fire impact probabilities and sizes.
