An extension of the simple ellipse model of a vegetation fire is presented. This facilitates numerical implementation, and can therefore incorporate irregular topographical features and temporal changes in burning conditions. The model has been encoded into an interactive PC program which gives a visual simulation of the spread of a fire on a graphics screen. The model has considerable potential for fire management.
