Creating and Viewing Simulations
This tool allows users to run new simulations using the loaded forecast as input and view results for simulations.
There are four types of simulations that can be run in FireSim:
Test - Used to conduct what-if scenarios for future predicted high risk areas.
Incident - Used if an actual fire has occurred and you want to run simulations for it
Damaged Assets - Used to run a simulation at a damaged asset location
Reconstruction - Used to reconstruct an incident
