Forest fires spread modeling using cellular automata approach

Fire modeling is used to understand and to predict possible fire behavior without getting burned. Fire models are used in different aspects of fire management: a) before fire, for risk factor calculation and this would help fire fighters to focus on areas with higher risk and develop better infrastructure, b) before fire, for fire fighter training purposes and developing a scenario for training, c) during fire, for planning fire fighting strategies and this would help fire crews position equipment on the ground so that they can minimize damage and stay safe. The paper will present how we can predict forest fire spread using cellular automata.This work on forest fire modeling is a part of a more complex integral project of Split and Dalmatia County forest fire protection. The integral forest fire protection system will be based on an information system for integrating all activities connected with early fire detection by 24 hours video and micro locations meteorological monitoring, management of forest fire fighting and post-fire recuperation of burned landscape. The module for the forest fire spread modeling is one of its modules
