Abstract

We present an overview of an ongoing project to build DDDAS to use all available data for a short term wildfire prediction. The project involves new data assimilation methods to inject data into a running simulation, a physics based model coupled with weather prediction, on-site data acquisition using sensors that can survive a passing fire, and on-line visualization using Google Earth.
