Analyzing US Wildfires using SAS Visual Analytics
The following SAS Visual Analytics report example uses data from the Forest Service Research group at the United States Department of Agriculture. It shows wildfire occurrences across the United States from 1992 to 2015. Collected from records from federal, state, and local fire organizations - we can see distribution of fire hotspots across the states.
The example shows details about common causes of fire as well as what time of the year fires are likely to occur. I also added a detailed snapshot of the devastating fires in Florida back in 2008.
Update March 2020:
If you are interested seeing how the report was created - have a look at the following speed-art version:
