WindNinja Case Study: Real-Time Data Adds Value to High-Resolution Wind Modeling
|
|
When wildland fire crews work in rugged terrain, knowing how winds will shift can be the difference between safety and danger. That’s why the USDA Forest Service’s Missoula Fire Sciences Laboratory developed WindNinja, an open-source tool that generates high-resolution wind maps for any location on Earth.
By integrating real-time weather data from Synoptic’s platform, WindNinja users can now seamlessly connect to local observations, improving the accuracy and speed of wind simulations. The result: better situational awareness, smarter fire spread predictions, and safer decision-making in the field.
