Incident personnel have provided a rough perimeter derived from aerial reconnaissance. </p><p>Final acreage was 14,712. Cost of containment approx. $7.4M, 28 structures lost.</p><p>Assignment for this Exercise: 1. Map fire perimeter </p><p>2. Locate any heat outside of the main fire perimeter</p><p>3. Map areas of intense heat, scattered heat and isolated heat</p><p>Desired Output Products: Shapefiles, PDF map, IRIN log and KMZ file Scanner order (Incident # AZ-NAA-000044, P# PAH5ZQ, Override #1502)</p><p>Files Provided for This Exercise: Base Data (NAD83, UTM Zone 12): 1:24,000-scale DRG Shaded relief NAIP imagery (resampled to 2 meters) GIS incident perimeter from 6/16 Phoenix Data: 140616_2156_ASAAYII_LAKE_*.tif 140616_2156_ASAAYII_LAKE_*_ortho.tif 140616_2156_ASAAYII_LAKE_*_color.tif 140616_2156_ASAAYII_LAKE_RawHeatData.shp</p><p>1 2</p>
