Abstract
Wildland fire is a way of life in southern California and can
be devastating to businesses, residential communities, and wildlife.
Application of frequency and interval models is an important
focus of regional wildland fire management. The San Diego Fire
History map series, as seen in the 2007 ESRI Map Book, showcases
significant fires in San Diego County, from 1910 to 2003. This
presentation will describe the process used to produce this
map, and explain how and why this process is important. Some
of the data used in this analysis can be downloaded through
SanGIS's 'Download GIS Data'.
