[GRASS-user] Description of WILDFIRE

[Ljiljana Bodrožić]

These  modules are performing rate of spread calculationons for each 
cell based on Rothermel equation for rate of spred (r.ros) and then 
performing 2D eliptical spread simulation.

Fuel model used in this module is 13 category model defined by Anderson 
and described in
http://www.firemodels.org/downloads/behaveplus/publications/Anderson_INT-122_1982.pdf

I am using the module in my work, but I am using grass 5.7 becouse when 
I use higher version of grass the r.spread freezes, and I still didn't 
get the answer why.

If you notice that the new version  of grass is performing r.spread 
without failure please let me know :)

best regards
