Wildfire simulation

摘要

The key aim of the Initiative for Global Management of Big Fires through Simulation (IGNIS) is to improve the command and coordination of wildfire incidents through the development of simulation training for incident commanders. A two-year project co-financed through the EU Civil Protection Financial Instrument, IGNIS brings together the knowledge and experience of emergency service partners from France, Italy Portugal and the UK. All four partner organisations also currently deliver wildfire training: France's National Training School for Firefighters/Entente pour la Foret Mediterraneenne; The Italian National Fire Corps (CNWF); The Portuguese National School for Firefighters (ENB); and Northumberland fire and rescue service in the UK. The project partners will spend the next two years developing a cost-effective, mobile, and easily accessible simulation tool that can be used by all partner countries and across Europe.
