Socioeconomic drivers data from GIS to predict forest fires at regional level: kernel density fires response variable

Resumen

This data gathers socioeconomic drivers at 1km2 grid cell spatial resolution to predict forest fires in a region in Spain. The response variable was fire density by grid cell from kernel density methods. It was produced under the Firemap project (https://geogra.uah.es/firemap/) by using GIS, spatial and statistical data sources at regional level in Spain. The resulting work was published at Vilar del Hoyo L, Martín Isabel MP, Martínez Vega FJ. 2011.
