DATA & FILE OVERVIEW
---------------------


1. File List:


   A. Filename: fired_bolivia_to2021121_events.gpkg
    i. These are one polygon for each fire event, with accompanying stats
   B. Filename: fired_bolivia_to2020121_daily.gpkg
    i. This is each fired event split into daily polygons. Each polygon will have an id for the event (which may encompass multiple polygons), and an id for each date within the event.
