# simple-bushfire-model
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A simple model of a bushfire spreading across a landscape represented as a 2D
|
||
|
|
grid. The model takes into account many factors, such as the amount and type of
|
||
|
|
fuel available, the slope of the land, the direction of the wind, and the
|
||
|
|
combustibility of the landscape, though only to a very limited extent and depth.
|
||
|
|
This model is then used to determine the optimal area to conduct a prescribed
|
||
|
|
burn to increase the chance that a town is not caught in the bushfire.

This project is based on an assignment for COMP10001, a subject at The
|
||
|
|
University of Melbourne. The assignment specification can be found
