Owners Owen Price, University of Wollongong
Project Abstract Hand digitised smoke plume data merged set of three sources. - Source Williamson are hand digitised from MODIS colour imagery as described in the Williamson paper. - Source Price are hand digitised from BOM radar images as described in the Price paper. - Source Samson are hand digitised from MODIS colour imagery. This has not been documented, but it is similar to Williamson. Unlike Williamson these are associated with a particular fire in the fire history database.

Abstract Smoke plume data merged from three sources. - Source Williamson are hand digitised from MODIS colour imagery as described in Williamson et al. 2013, Satellite-based comparison of fire intensity and smoke plumes from prescribed fires and wildfires in south-eastern Australia. International Journal of Wildland Fire 22: 121-129. http://dx.doi.org/10.1071/WF11165 - Source Price are hand digitised from BOM radar images as described in Price et al. 2018. Comparing the height and area of wild and prescribed fire. International Journal of Wildland Fire 27: 525-537. https://doi.org/10.1071/WF17166 particle plumes in south-east Australia using weather radar. - Source Samson are hand digitised from MODIS colour imagery. This has not been documented, but it is similar to Williamson. Unlike Williamson these are associated with a particular fire in the fire history database.

Abstract Final smoke plumes datasets for the period 1 July 2015 to 31 December 2017 used in the report: Earth, wind and fire: Using satellite imagery to map the health efforts of landscape fire smoke on Perth metropolitan residents. The data files are: 1. smoke_plumes_hourly.shp - hourly smoke plumes data digitized from Himawari 8 satellite image product 2. smoke_plumes_daily.shp - daily smoke plumes data created by dissolving the hourly data by calendar date 3. smoke_plume_proportions_by_sa2.shp - daily proportion of ABS Statistical Area (SA2) covered by smoke plumes 4. smoke_plume_proportions_by_bomgrid.shp - daily proportion of Australian Bureau of Meteorology analysis grid (~ 1.5 km x 1.5 km) covered by smoke plumes NB: Also included is a table relating DBCA landscape fires and smoke plumes over the study area - perth_landscape_fire_and_smoke_metadata.csv. The table is only provided as auxiliary information.
