In the everyday work at Forest Protection it is quite common to use a number of modeling and data manipulation tools  to be effective and efficient. Some very common tools are Burn-P3, BioSIM, and ArcGIS.

Burn-P3
This is a model which is used to evaluate wildfire susceptibility over large fire prone landscapes. This simulation model combines deterministic fire growth modeling with probabilistic model inputs. The outcome allows a 'Burn Probability' map to be produced among other things.

BioSIM
This is a powerful tool which can be used to develop temperature-driven simulation in pest management and may also be adapted to simulate other weather dependant outputs.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ArcGIS
This is a complete system for managing and designing solutions via applicatoin of geographic knowledge.  With this tool is possible to perform deep analysis of data to promote well informed decisions.
