Wildfire Hazard Potential in National Parks and Monuments across the Western United States

Western Wind Raster - Reclassified Mean Temperature Raster - Reclassified Mean Precipitation Raster - Reclassified This week I began to analyze my data to work on showing wildfire hazard potential across the western United States. To do this, I used the reclassify tool to give my rasters rankings. I then chose a color scheme which correctly represents each raster. Each of these 3 rasters has a ranking system of 1-9, so I will eventually use the raster calculator to add these rasters together in order to receive a number which represents wildfire hazard potential. The maximum number of wildfire hazard potential will be 27. I also had to use the interpolation tool in order to convert my western wind data set from points to a raster. This data set was also in a different coordinate system than my mean temperature raster and mean precipitation raster so I had to change it. My next steps will be to use the raster calculator to add these 3 rasters together and come...

Precipitation Raster Clip Temperature Raster Clip This week I worked on clipping my raster data to show just the Western United States. The first map shows the annual average precipitation for the month of September in the western United States and the second map shows the annual average temperature for the month of September in the western United States. On top of the raster's, I have also clipped my western wind data set and the national park boundary data. Next week I plan to add color to my rasters based on the ranking systems which I have already created. I also need to figure out how I will be showing wildfire hazard potential surrounding National Park boundaries in the western United States. I am not sure if I should choose the most popular national park in each state to show wildfire hazard potential or use each National Park in each state.
