Fuel Map

rforge.library.processes.fuel.fuel(coverage: Layer | ndarray, height: Layer | ndarray, distance: Layer | ndarray, water: Layer | ndarray, artificial: Layer | ndarray, models: list | tuple[int, int, int], tree_height: float, alpha: Layer | ndarray | None = None, as_array: bool = False) → ndarray | Layer

Calculate the fuel map of the terrain based on defined fuel models.

Parameters:

• coverage – Layer data representing vegetation coverage of the terrain.

• height – Layer data representing canopy height of the vegetation.

• distance – Layer data representing distance field of terrain features.

• water – Layer data representing water presence in the terrain.

• artificial – Layer data representing artificial structures in the terrain.

• models – Tuple of integers representing the fuel models.

• tree_height – Height of the trees.

• alpha – Alpha layer. Defaults to None.

• as_array – If True, returns the distance field as a Numpy array. Defaults to False.

Returns:

Fuel map.

Raises:

TypeError – If inputs are not of the accepted type.
