Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for providing a user interface for fire management. One method includes an operation for estimating, by a fire management system, a fire state in a region and a forecast of an evolution of a fire at multiple times. The fire management program provides a user interface presenting fire information based on the estimated fire state and the forecast. The user interface includes a map of the region, a graphical representation of the fire information, and a time bar for selecting a time for the fire information. Additionally, the method includes an operation for receiving, via the user interface, a selection of the time for the fire information. The selected time is one of a past time, a present time, or a future time. The fire management program presents in the user interface the fire information for the selected time.
