Canada's current method of fire danger assessment is known as the Canadian Forest Fire Danger Rating System (CFFDRS), which took shape in the late 1960s when the Canadian Forest Service (CFS) envisioned a modular design for a national fire danger rating system. The CFFDRS currently comprises two major subsystems, namely the Fire Weather Index (FWI) System and the Fire Behaviour Prediction (FBP) System. 3, record 2, English, - Canadian%20Forest%20Fire%20Danger%20Rating%20System

La Méthode canadienne d'évaluation des dangers d'incendie de forêt (MCEDIF) est le système national canadien d'évaluation des dangers d'incendie de forêt. Le système renferme l'affichage de données météorologiques, à la fois existantes et à venir, servant à l'évaluation des dangers d'incendie de forêt, la description de la fréquence des incendies ainsi que la prévision des caractéristiques du comportement du feu. 2, record 2, French, - M%C3%A9thode%20canadienne%20d%27%C3%A9valuation%20des%20dangers%20d%27incendie%20de%20for%C3%AAt

The Canadian Forest Fire Behavior Prediction (FBP) System provides quantitative estimates of potential head fire spread rate, fuel consumption, and fire intensity, as well as fire descriptions. With the aid of an elliptical fire growth model, it gives estimates of fire area, perimeter, perimeter growth rate, and flank and back fire behavior. 1, record 3, English, - Canadian%20Forest%20Fire%20Behavior%20Prediction%20System

La Méthode canadienne de prévision du comportement des incendies de forêt (PCI) fournit des estimations quantitatives de la vitesse de propagation de la tête des incendies, de la consommation de combustible et de l'intensité des incendies ainsi qu'une description des incendies. Au moyen d'un modèle elliptique de la propagation du feu, on produit des estimations de la superficie et du périmêtre des zones touchées et de la vitesse d'extension du périmètre ainsi qu'une indication du comportement du feu sur les flancs et l'arrière. 1, record 3, French, - M%C3%A9thode%20canadienne%20de%20pr%C3%A9vision%20du%20comportement%20des%20incendies%20de%20for%C3%AAt
