Abstract or Description

This map shows the average annual snowfall (sourced from NOAA) in various towns and cities across Maine, while also noting the locations of all of the ski mountains listed on the Ski Maine website. The snowflake symbol shows the recorded accumulation of snowfall. This map was created by digitizing various points (towns and mountain locations) and interpolating the towns and snowfall data to create a raster layer with a cell size of 26m in order to create a continuous gradient that provides a visual representation of snowfall. Projected Coordinate System: NAD83 UTM Zone19N.
