Statistical scenes from ten-year land surface temperature (LST) climatology of Miami-Dade County Florida (2013-2022)
No full textThis data collection is comprised of statistical summary (average, minimum, maximum, standard deviation) LST scenes (processed in ArcGIS) from LST scenes that were captured at 11 AM EDT/12 PM EST by the Landsat 8 satellite (2013-2022). Scenes are Level 2-1, retrieved from the USGS Earth Explorer. Processed LST rasters in TIFF format are composed of 30x30m pixels that contain a LST value in Celsius (°C) for that area. Each raster image is clipped to Miami-Dade County boundaries (downloaded from the Miami-Dade County Open Data Hub).References:Miami-Dade County. (n.d.). Data, Maps, and Apps. Open Data Hub.

Miami-Dade County Public Schools: The hidden truth
No full textUsing a Youth Participatory Action Research (YPAR) approach , we conducted a survey to capture how young people in Miami-Dade County Public Schools are experiencing school and provide insight about student treatment in schools and in Student Success Centers. By pairing this data with a quantitative analysis of MDCPS’ discipline data, we developed a report card, grading the district on how well it supports students. The research confirms our lived experiences and those of the hundreds of young people we spoke with in
conducting our survey. We hope you learn from this report and are moved to take action to make sure every
student in MDCPS has access to fully-funded, quality schools that support and nurture young people’s
whole selves. This is our assessment of how MDCPS fails to support students and what must change to make them the schools where we all succeed
Traffic signs research study for Miami-Dade County.
No full textThe years 2004 and 2005 were very active regarding hurricane activity in the Atlantic basin. Miami-Dade County experienced damages due to hurricanes Katrina and Wilma within a time span of barely two months. A significant proportion of street signs failed when these two hurricanes impacted Miami-Dade County and its surrounding communities. A traffic sign is considered as failed if it is leaning by more than 15 degrees from its vertical axis. Most of the street signs failed at their foundations, as shown in Figure A. This fact raised the need to find effective alternatives to secure traffic signs and reduce the number of damaged signs during moderate hurricanes. By improving the wind force withstanding capability of street signs, the costs associated with their repair and/or replacement are considerably reduced and the county\u2019s valuable resources can be concentrated towards other aspects of the recovery process. Currently, the installation process for a standard street sign can be performed by one crew member in less than 30 minutes. The goal of this study is to evaluate a set of feasible alternatives for improving withstanding capabilities of the street signs without making the installation process more difficult

Miami-Dade County Urban Tree Canopy Analysis
Get PDFThis assessment focuses on describing urban tree canopy (UTC) within the Urban Development Boundary of Miami-Dade County, as defined by the Miami-Dade County Transportation Planning Organization (Figure 1). The area (intracoastal water areas excluded) encompasses approximately 1147 km2 (443 mi2). A combination of remote sensing and publicly available vector data was used to classify the following land cover classes: tree canopy/shrubs, grass, bare ground, wetland, water, building, street/railroad, other impervious surfaces, and cropland

Pepper Production in Miami-Dade County, Florida
No full textPepper is an important vegetable crop in Miami-Dade County. Unlike other vegetable crops, peppers are relatively more adaptable to the environment, especially the heat, and are relatively easier to grow. But to be successful, careful attention must be paid to maintain healthy plants and high productivity with efficient management of soil and water for the particular needs of each variety or cultivar. This revised 7-page fact sheet provides general information and guidelines for pepper growers in Miami-Dade County, including major pepper varieties, and their horticultural traits, and fundamental soil and water management requirements. Written by Qingren Wang, Shouan Zhang, Yuncong Li, Dakshina Seal, Waldemar Klassen, and Teresa Olczyk, and published by the UF Department of Horticultural Sciences, February 2015.
