Abstract
FireDST (Fire Impact and Risk Evaluation Decision Support Tool) links various databases and models, including a fire spread model, building vulnerability assessment models, and infrastructure and demographic databases. The information is assembled into an integrated simulation framework through a geographical information system (GIS) interface. Pre-processed information, such as factors that determine the local and regional wind, and also the typical response of buildings to fire, are linked through a database, along with census-derived social and economic information. Impacts on infrastructure and people (smoke and heat) are assessed. An overview of the FireDST simulation 'proof of concept' tool is presented.
