摘要:The increase in the number of forest fires in the last few years has forced governments to take precautions. Besides prevention, early intervention is also very important in fire fighting. If the fire-fighters know where the fire will be in some time, it would be easier for them to stop the fire. Therefore a big need for simulating the fire behaviour exists. In this paper we are proposing a system which can simulate the propagation of fire in time. Also this system can visualize the propagation of fire in any 3D-GIS environment that accepts KMZ as a file format. Besides, the system supports the visualization of a large number of output data from the simulations, according to the user needs. This facilitates fire planning by fire-fighters. 3D visualization at 3D screens is also supported. Therefore, a better understanding of the terrain can be obtained
