Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reviewing the linked ArcGIS Focal Statistics reference and the Placer Creek and second incident examples. Clarify the buffer distance, desktop versus mobile scope, and the incomplete acceptance criteria with the listed SME before locating the relevant MoreCast entry point. Done means an agreed focal moving-window hotspot layer that satisfies the finalized criteria.
