10. Design a pedagogic document
Instituitional integration: optional theme in extra curriculum
Content: to identify the level of forest fire in some provinces according to date provided by meteorological stations
Mathematic knowledge:
Using the statistics data of temperature, air humidity and rainfall at 13 hours daily to determine the meteorological Nesterop index P from November 2002 to date of the meteorological stations.
Using daily statistics on P to classify P for each month at indicated provinces
Application of spatial interpolation methods for determining the date of the P grade 4 and 5 for each month in each 1km2 equidistant points around the territory.
