In response to the wildfires in Los Angeles, aircraft undertook a monumental effort, flying more than 15,000 miles to drop retardant and monitor the situation. Peter Atwood creatively used an animated map to visualize this extensive activity over a 24-hour period. Incorporating data from NASA on wildfire patterns and terrain information from ArcGIS, the map presents a vibrant depiction of the urgency and chaos faced by firefighting teams working to combat the spreading flames.
The animated map showcased 24 hours of firefighting efforts in Los Angeles, illustrating the urgent and extensive aerial support against the raging wildfires.
Using NASA wildfire data and ArcGIS terrain maps, Atwood provided a fascinating visualization of over 15,000 flight miles flown by aircraft.
