Basin Analysis Report V2 spec - Fire Disturbance

[jdduh]

The Batch Tool needs to have new analyses that incorporate fire disturbance data. These functions will be integrated into the AOI Summary Tool (#45) as well. The new tools will produce maps and tables (charts) for individual AOIs and a summary .csv file.

Fire Disturbance Tables/Charts

Fire Statistics 1981-current Fire Statistics 5-year increments up to 30 years (i.e., 2019-2023, 2014-2023, 2009-2023, 2004-2023, 1999-2023, 1994-2023)

• Year (or 5 years)
• Number of new fires for that time period
• Newly burned area
• % AOI area newly burned
• Area of forested land cover newly burned
• % forested area newly burned
• % AOI area with high, medium, and low burn severity newly burned

Fire Disturbance Maps

• Annual / newly burned area on elevation zones
• Annual / newly burned area on land cover
• Annual / newly burned area on other basin analysis report maps (TBD)
• Burn severity of annual / newly burned area on elevation zones

Do we want to implement the maps as multi-pane maps similar to the snodas SWE maps?

[jdduh]

The spec hasn't been finalized but it's very likely that the multi-pane layout is needed.

[lbross]

Are the fire disturbance maps at the same time grain as the charts? This is, will we have 6 versions of each map for: 1981-current, 2019-2023, 2014-2023, 2009-2023, 2004-2023, 1999-2023, and 1994-2023?

Thoughts on not creating maps where the # of new fires = 0, at least for the annual maps? You could generate 40 plus maps that look the same with no fires.

[lbross]

Write the Excel tables to maps_publish\fire_statistics subfolder of the parent directory selected in the GUI. This will be a new subfolder of maps_publish.

[lbross]

Do we want to delete any old .csv files from the fire_statistics directory before writing the new ones? I am testing changing the years/intervals. Right now it overwrites any existing files but won't delete a file if it isn't included in the requested range. We would delete any files with "_annual_statistics.csv" in the file name.
