Create a QUIC-Fire Export

A QUIC-Fire export is a downloadable file that contains all the fuel and topography input files you need to run a QUIC-Fire simulation.

The compressed export includes the following files:

  • treesrhof.dat: 3D canopy fuel grid of bulk density values.
  • treesmoist.dat: 3D canopy fuel grid of moisture content values.
  • treesfueldepth.dat: 3D canopy fuel grid of fuel depth values.
  • topo.dat: 2D topography grid of elevation values.

This tutorial will guide you through the process of creating and downloading a QUIC-Fire export in the FastFuels web application.
