Created in ArcGIS Pro by calculating a point system via five categories: elevation, vegetation cover, slope, proximity to roads, and proximity from waterways (rivers). Sites with the highest scores were located at high elevations with low slopes, close to roads and far from waterways. These locations were also located in areas with forest cover, due to hot summer conditions in areas with no tree coverage.
Data pulled from the San Diego Association of Government, and the USGS San Diego Hydrology Department.
