A Method for Ensemble Wildland Fire Simulation (2011, methodology): “Data layers include descriptions of surface fuels [44] and canopy fuels in formats required by fire growth simulation software [20, 24].”
Cell2Fire: A Cell-Based Forest Fire Growth Model to Support Strategic Landscape Management Planning (2019, methodology): “Software such as Burn-P3, FSPro, and FlamMap (Parisien et al., 2005b, 2011; Finney et al., 2011b) can calculate these values using fire growth algorithms to produce high-resolution spatial estimates.”
Modeling wildfire risk to northern spotted owl (Strix occidentalis caurina) habitat in Central Oregon, USA (2007, methodology): “Polygon data on canopy bulk density (kg/m), height to live crown (ft), total stand height (ft), canopy cover (%) and fuel model (Scott and Burgan, 2005) generated from FVS-FFE were used to build a raster (30 m 30 m) landscape file in the format required by FlamMap (Finney, 2006).”
A comparison of landscape fuel treatment strategies to mitigate wildland fire risk in the urban interface and preserve old forest structure (2010, unknown): “Specifically, FVS simulated surface fires, and Randig reported total flame length of the combined crown and surface fire.”
