Abstract :
Grassland fire is a serious and common disaster in Inner Mongolia, China and it is a kind of extremely complex natural phenomena influenced by various factors. The design aims to simulate the fire trend based on GIS and scientific grassland fire spread model and finally provides assistant decisions. The system will be used in Inner Mongolia Emergency Response Platform.
