loadFuel
Upload a custom fuel map from a space- or tab-separated .txt file. The file is sent as the raw request body with Content-Type `text/plain` and a `fileName` header. Uploading a fuel map updates `cellDimension` to match the file's grid size and also updates `cellResolution` from the file's `cellsize` field if present. **File format:** space- or tab-separated grid of integer fuel model values, one row per line. The number of rows and columns defines the cell space dimensions.
Request Body

setDynamicIgnition
Assign a burn team to travel and ignite along a path from (x1,y1) to (x2,y2). Teams with different `teamNum` values run simultaneously. Calling this multiple times with the same `teamNum` chains paths in sequence.
loadAspect
Upload a custom aspect map from a space- or tab-separated .txt file. Sent as a raw `text/plain` body with a `fileName` header. Also updates `cellResolution` from the file's `cellsize` field if present. **File format:** space- or tab-separated grid of double-precision aspect values (degrees), one row per line. Must match the dimensions of any uploaded fuel or slope map.
