GridFire is a raster-based fire behavior model that may be used to simulate the spread of wildland fires across a landscape, either individually or in monte carlo simulations over space and time. For inputs, it requires a stack of co-registered raster maps for your area of interest as well as a text configuration file that specifies various parameters necessary for the simulation.
GridFire has been coded as a literate program (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Literate_programming) using Emacs’ org-mode (http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/). Full documentation of the current system can always be found in the org directory within this repository:
