From: Modeling thinning effects on fire behavior with STANDFIRE
Flow chart illustrating components in STANDFIRE, a prototype system for 3D fuel and fire modeling at stand scales, which links several models (orange boxes), through text files (white boxes); interfaces (green boxes) facilitate user inputs, visualization, and analysis. STANDFIRE consists of three sub-systems: fuels, which develops fuel inputs to physics-based fire models; fire, consisting of two independent fire models; and metrics, which visualize and quantify simulation outputs
