Five (5) m x 5 m agents are deployed over a digital elevation model of the same resolution. Each agent acts on a set of rules that describe its ability to scour, deposit, move, create, and interact with other agents in successive timesteps. The rules are physically and empirically based and together describe typical debris flow behavior. Useful controls help the user calibrate behavior to their specific site.
How does it work?

DebrisFlow Predictor is a two-dimensional agent-based landslide simulation that models complex behaviors of debris flows and debris avalanches. The simulations yield credible predictions of landslide runout, scour, and deposition along the path. Representative outcomes from the simulations are expected to preserve communities, the environment, and important infrastructure.

What is DebrisFlow Predictor?
Since the Predictor describes the aggregate behavior of debris flows, the software is intended for steep mountainous terrain with shallow, extremely rapid, flow-type landslides. It can also be used to characterize smaller translational landslides at river banks.
