We propose a new point process model that combines, in the spatio-temporal setting, both multi-scaling by hybridization and hardcore distances. Our so-called hybrid Strauss hardcore point process model allows different types of interaction, at different spatial and/or temporal scales, that might be of interest in environmental and biological applications. The inference and simulation of the model are implemented using the logistic likelihood approach and the birth-death Metropolis-Hastings algorithm. Our model is illustrated and compared to others on two datasets of forest fire occurrences respectively in France and Spain.
