    WMT Version 3.0 is the third major iteration of the Campbell Prediction System (Emxsys-CPS) software. It works like earlier releases in that it demonstrates the CPS "alignment of forces" concepts alongside BEHAVE fire spread calculations. Version 3.0 introduces better maps and a new user interface plus a new application framework that will accommodate new and evolving features. Enjoy.
