The model features autonomous scouting units that patrol and detect fires, and ground firefighting units that respond to extinguish them.\n\n## Features\n- **Scouter Units (Blue)**: Autonomous patrol units that detect fires within their detection radius\n- **Ground Units (Red trucks)**: Firefighting vehicles that extinguish fires using water\n- **Dynamic Fire Spread**: Fire spreads to neighboring trees based on spread rate and wind conditions\n- **Resource Management**: Ground units must return to base to refill water\n- **Real-time Statistics**: Track trees saved, burned, water used, and response times\n- **Wind Effects**: Configurable wind direction affects fire spread patterns\n\n## Tree States\n- 🟢 **Green**: Healthy, unburned trees\n- 🔴 **Red**: Trees that just caught fire\n- 🔴 **Dark Red**: Trees burning for extended time\n- 🟡 **Yellow**: Trees saved by firefighting efforts\n- ⚫ **Black**: Trees completely destroyed by fire\n\n## Parameters\n### Forest Parameters\n- `forest-density`: Percentage of patches containing trees (0-100%)\n- `burn-duration`: How long trees burn before being destroyed\n\n### Fire Parameters\n- `initial-fires`: Number of fires to start the simulation\n- `fire-spread-rate`: Probability of fire spreading to neighboring trees (0-4)\n- `auto-start-fires`: Whether new fires start automatically during simulation\n- `fire-start-probability`: Probability of new fires starting\n- `wind-setting`: Wind direction (none/north/south/east/west)\n\n### Scouter Parameters\n- `num-scouters`: Number of detection units\n- `scouter-detection-radius`: How far scouters can detect fires\n- `scouter-speed`: Movement speed of scouters\n\n### Ground Unit Parameters\n- `num-ground-units`: Number of firefighting vehicles\n- `max-water-capacity`: Water capacity per ground unit\n- `ground-unit-speed`: Movement speed of ground units\n\n## How to Run\n1. **Install NetLogo**: Download from [NetLogo website](https://ccl.northwestern.edu/netlogo/)\n2. **Open the model**: Load `forest-fire-simulation.nlogo`\n3. **Adjust parameters**: Use the sliders to configure your simulation\n4. **Setup**: Click \"Setup\" to initialize\n5. **Run**: Click \"Go\" to start the simulation\n\n## How It Works\n1. **Detection Phase**: Scouter units patrol the forest and detect fires, creating fire markers\n2. **Response Phase**: Ground units respond to detected fires\n3. **Suppression Phase**: Ground units extinguish burning trees using water\n4. **Spread Phase**: Uncontrolled fires continue spreading to neighboring trees\n5. **Recovery Phase**: Units return to base for refueling when needed\n\n## Statistics \u0026 Metrics\nThe simulation tracks:\n- Total trees vs trees burned/saved\n- Survival rate (percentage of forest saved)\n- Fires detected\n- Water used\n- Average response time\n- Fire efficiency (trees saved per fire detected)\n\n## Technologies\n- **NetLogo 6.4.0**: Agent-based modeling platform\n- **Multi-agent system**: Different agent types with unique behaviors\n- **Dynamic simulation**: Real-time state changes and visual feedback\n\n## Author\nIoannis Karkalas\n\n## License\nThis project is licensed under the MIT License - see the [LICENSE](LICENSE) file for details.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fretr0sity%2Ffirefighters-simulation","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fretr0sity%2Ffirefighters-simulation","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fretr0sity%2Ffirefighters-simulation/lists"}
