산불확산 시뮬레이션 도입을 위한 FARSITE 고찰

Research on FARSITE for introducing a Forest fire simulator

We studied a basic concept and application about FARSITE, which is a forest fire spread simulator for preventing and predicting fire in United States Department of Agriculture(USDA). And, we researched a problem in the transition for introducing, so we serve the basic method for prevention and attacking fire. For this transition, we compared the behavior of the 2005 Yangyang forest fire with the result of a simulation. The spread direction is similar to real data. But, while mean spread of rate was 0.65km/hr on real data, it was 0.3km/hr on simulation. As Damaged area is 1,387ha on real, it was 5,368ha on simulation. Therefore, it is necessary to establish a fuel concept for more accurate simulation.
