Table 1.

Spatial variables comprising the temporal change summary produced as part of the mapping algorithm.

Variable Description
S* Maximum separability in VI time series
t* Date of maximum VI separability: t* (x, y ) = (t k * + W − 1 + tk * +W)/2.
t* Uncertainty in date of maximum separability:
t * (x, y ) = tk*+W−1tk*+W.
∆VI* Change in VI associated with maximum separability:
VIpost* Post maximum-separability VI
t f Cumulative mask identifying date on which active fire was detected
during the three-month processing period.
IQRpre* Interquartile range of observation dates in candidate pre-burn window
associated with maximum separability
IQRpost* Interquartile range of observation dates in candidate post-burn
window associated with maximum separability.
σt* Temporal “texture”, i.e., rank-filtered local standard deviation of t*.
