  1. STANDFIREStrategic thinking 12/19/2012 Getting the ball rolling

  2. Overview of STANDFIRE • Many partners: RMRS (Parsons, Jolly, Cohn; Crookston, Sieg), PNW(Mell), LANL (Linn), INRA (Rigolot, Pimont, Dupuy, de Coligny). • Objectives: 1) prototype system (FVS-> WFDS->outputs) 2) metrics (fuels and fire) 3) new platform for fire science development • Project is mostly focused on programming/ development; little $ for field work etc – emphasis on using data we already have. • Platforms: Leveraging work from different contributors is facilitated by work in multiple platforms (java, c++, matlab, python, R). • Programming: Emphasis on modular development, interchangable parts, sensitivity analysis, component testing

  3. Objectives • Prototype system is focal point but core science development (and publications) are the primary goal • Metrics : Investigate & evaluate existing metrics as well as explore development of new metrics • New platform for fire science development / collaboration

  4. Fire Paradox FuelManager FVS-SVS – Stand Visualization System Fire Effects: Crown scorch by tree Stand scale fire simulation with WFDS

  5. System is focal point for core research activity STANDFIRE project: collaborative framework STANDFIRE System Specific research products For each arena: Prioritize Tangible question  paper Fire Lab INRA PNW LANL Nick Idea is to build towards a modular system eventually facilitating complete integration of fuels science, fire behavior and fire effects -- someday, model surface fuels with multiple layers, heavy fuels, etc.

  6. System is focal point for core research activity STANDFIRE project: collaborative framework Arenas: Fuels representation (---) Model comparisons / algorithm testing / model formulation (---) Metrics – fuels & fire (---) Other? Nick STANDFIRE System Fire Lab INRA PNW LANL
