Case Study: CFITrainer.Net Fire Dynamics
Calculator
Fire investigators need to follow a systematic approach or scientific method. These
fire service and law enforcement people are in demanding situations and often need
to use complex calculations to either rule out the cause of a fire or confirm or
test their hypothesis. Stonehouse Media worked with leading scientists in the field
from the IAAI to create a quick access calculator that can be used on a mobile phone,
a PDA or a laptop. The program has been updated and distributed online. Stonehouse
Media also produced an online webinar for the International Association of Arson
Investigators so that the use of the calculator could be taught worldwide.
