SMSINFO

SMSINFO is a computer model designed for use by resource managers who have an elementary knowledge of Paradox relational database software. It uses the latest research knowledge to predict the amount of fuel consumed and emissions produced in sites treated with prescribed fire.

These predictions are based on fuel loading, fuel moisture, weather data, and a number of other factors. The application can be used for broadcast burns, underburns, landing, and pile burns in the western states if the fuels are relatively homogenous and compsoed of evergreen conifer species.
