The main purpose of the SmokeStorm project is to develop, test and operationalize a web platform delivering near-real time smoke dispersion forecasts, as well as user friendly information on the potential effects on human health and visibility, to be used by Portuguese stakeholders.

To this purpose, the work is structured into 6 specific tasks:

  1. Fire spread and smoke emissions modelling;
  2. Smoke dispersion modelling;
  3. Smoke dispersion evaluation;
  4. Smoke impacts;
  5. Near-real time web platform
  6. Communication and dissemination
