Forest fire spread simulation for Uttarakhand, India using NASA VIIRS satellite data, Copernicus DEM, and a Rothermel Cellular Automation model.

Wildfire spread forecasting that feeds the evacuation router: Rothermel cellular automata, hybrid bias correction, Dijkstra around roads predicted to burn, and submodular crew placement. Naive routing traps 27% of residents; forecast-aware traps none.
