This map showcases the average temperature in August across Africa and Oceania, visualized using filled contour intervals. The data reflects temperature variations with a gradient color scheme, where darker shades indicate higher temperatures.Â
Creation Process:
The map was created using geostatistical analysis techniques in ArcGIS Pro, specifically applying the Kriging method to generate smooth surfaces that accurately represent temperature variations.
Kriging allowed for the creation of predictive surfaces with optimized parameters, improving the accuracy of the temperature representation over simpler methods like IDW.
The contours are derived from temperature data sources, including Esri, TomTom, FAO, NOAA, and USGS.
Visual Details:
The left panel displays temperature data for Africa, highlighting the intense heat in northern and central regions.
The right panel shows Oceania, illustrating a cooler range of temperatures compared to Africa, particularly in Australia.
The legend provides a clear scale of temperature values in degrees Celsius, aiding in visual interpretation.
