Contributing to ForeFire

PR's are welcome! Feel free to contribute to the project. Below are listed some desired improvements.

Improvements

1. Python bindings

Wrap the interpreter in a Python library, to be able to call forefire directly from Python.

SWIG binding in swig folder can be improved and updated to Python 3. Alternatively, another tool can be used like Pybind11.

2. Testing

• Used CMAKE and CTEST to autotests

3. Sharing Forefire output

• The current geojson DumpMode needs reprojection to be easilly shared. Reprojection is made in python but could be integrated into cpp code
• Other dump modes like shapefile or geopackage

4. Documentation

Improvements in documentation are welcome.
