An Interactive System for Exploring Historical Fire Data

摘要

Wildfires cause immense costs to human life, property, and the environment. As the impact of climate change increases the frequency and severity of wildfires, a renewed effort to understand these phenomena and their catalysts has increased. In this paper, we introduce a system that couples multiple sources of data and visualization to enable analysts to study historical fire data. We show two use cases to demonstrate the effectiveness of our system.
