City-level drought data
Each city is represented by the single H3 resolution-5 hexagonal cell (~86 km across) that contains it. This gives a precise, point-based drought history without the smoothing effect of country-wide averaging. Useful for comparing drought timing between nearby cities.
About this project
DroughtStripes is created by DroughtStripes.org and GlobalDroughtMap.com. Inspired by Prof. Ed Hawkins' iconic Warming Stripes. Use #DroughtStripes to share.
