Bushfire Model
Overall:A portable scale model able to replicate landscape features (natural and human built); used to demonstrate bush fire behaviour safety and fire suppression strategies. Applications include delivery of training community education and post incident debriefing of emergency responders. The model is a significant alternative or complimentary to powerpoint presentations and using white boards to draw fire scenarios. Specifically:1. Model design / concept – capacity to recreate landscapes and fire scenarios. Two different sized landscapes are produced; portability is a key feature.2. Construction materials in particular the hessian / jute / burlap material and the realistic fire shapes.3. Landscapes created to replicate different situations (E.g. bushfire in a rural setting or an urban environment) further there is capacity to use landscape pieces individually or together to create larger landscapes
