When using a polygon as an ignition location in FireSim
Polygons no longer get converted to polylines
Simulations now only burn from the outside edge of a polygon, not the interior
This changes the workflow for simulating using an existing fire perimeter as the ignition location. It eliminates the need to create a custom fuel patch for the area inside the fire perimeter.
Added an option to export FireSim perimeters to geojson format
Polygon mapping features from Tactical Analyst now have transparency automatically applied so you can see other features underneath
Added Weather Settings:
minimum accumulated precipitation 1h
minimum accumulated precipitation 24h
