What are Transition Spatial Initiation Multipliers?

[davidanderson]

I had a question about the Spatial Initiation Multiplier. It is an option but the reference about it is blank.

Transition Spatial Initiation Multipliers are similar to transition spatial multipliers but they do not modify the transition probability, instead they affect only the probability that a particular simulation cell will be used as the starting location of a transition event. Traditionally these have been used to incorporate things like the impact of proximity to roads, campsites and dwellings on on the probability of a fire ignition.

Will try to get the documentation updated as soon as possible.

Thanks. Don’t need that feature right now but I can see the utility.
