clmfires: Castilla-La Mancha Forest Fires

Description

This dataset is a record of forest fires in the Castilla-La Mancha region of Spain between 1997 and 2007. The dataset clmfires is a point pattern (object of class "ppp") containing the spatial coordinates of each fire, with marks containing information about each fire. There are 11 columns of marks: ll{ cause cause of fire (see below) burnt.area total area burned, in hectares year calendar year of fire (factor with levels 1997-2007) month calendar month of fire (factor with levels 1-12) day calendar day of fire (integer 1-31) time number of days elapsed since 1 January 1997 elevation terrain elevation in metres above sea level orientation direction of upward slope in degrees (0-360) slope slope of terrain slope.discretized discretized value of slope land.use type of land cover (see below) } The cause of the fire is a factor with the levels lightning, accident (for accidents or negligence), intentional (for intentionally started fires) and unknown (for other causes or unknown cause).

The land.use variable is a factor with levels urban, farm (for farms or orchards), meadow, denseforest (for dense forest), conifer (for conifer forest or plantation), mixedforest, grassland, bush, scrub and artifgreen for artificial greens such as golf courses. Accompanying this point pattern, there are two datasets clmcov100 and clmcov200 containing covariate information for the entire Castilla-La Mancha region. Each of these two datasets is a list of four images (objects of class "im") named elevation, orientation, slope and landuse. These images provide values for the four covariates at every location in the study area. The images in clmcov100 are 100 by 100 pixels in size, while those in clmcov200 are 200 by 200 pixels. For easy handling, clmcov100 and clmcov200 also belong to the class "listof" so that they can be plotted and printed immediately.
