|
| Stand-level | Stand | Set up options for FVS/FVS-FFE including export type, applying fuel treatment prescriptions, treatment analysis, and treatment comparison tools. External linkage to open SVS. |
| Select stand | Toggle button that allows the user to select individual stands within the landscape to run FVS/FVS-FFE. |
| Wildfire models | External linkage to open NEXUS and BehavePlus. Internally coded version of BehavePlus (“Behave Calculator”) for quick stand level calculations of rate of spread and flame length while varying fuel model and/or fire climate information. |
| Landscape-level | Cell data | Toggle button that allows the user to select individual pixels within the landscape to see the values associated with the FARSITE grid sandwich. |
| Modify grid values | Tool that allows for modification of grid values (integer or floating point) across the whole landscape or for user-defined portions. |
| Landscape | Multiple functions: (1) apply prescriptions to the landscape using “Stand select” ArcGIS selection, and grid based selections, (2) set up and running of FVS/FVS-FFE (includes all FVS functionality) including treatment analysis, carbon offset calculations, (3) create landscape files from FVS data, grid data, or multiple sources, and (4) restoration treatment optimization model. |
| Wildfire models | External linkage to open FlamMap, FARSITE, and an internally coded command line version of FlamMap. |
| Risk | Used with FlamMap 5.0 and FVS-FFE outputs to calculate and analyze conditional flame length, loss functions, and fire hazard matrices. |
| Conversion | Single and batch conversion of point data to shapefiles and ASCII files to grids, and direct export of attributes to Excel. |
| Other | Projects and files | Location of linkage information between ArcFuels linked programs, GIS layers, GIS layers and FVS databases, and input and output data folders. |
| ArcFuels help | ArcFuels version information. |
