Dynamic framework can better predict wildfires

Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) has developed a new framework for early wildfire detection using real-time modeling that combines multiple datasets with complex remote-sensing capabilities. Understanding real-time wildfire growth patterns and fire dynamics while accounting for environmental and atmospheric variables can help emergency officials make life-saving decisions about when to inform an at-risk community or where to stage resources.
