Generating an SVG from a set of shapefiles

The USGS provides detailed downloads of fire perimeters, with timestamped files that can be used to show the spread of a major fire over time.

Using the 2017 Thomas fire as an example, we'll process this data into a single SVG file with all the different perimeter measurements.

This index page contains links to a series of shapefiles of the fire boundary, each one with a timestamp:

	/**
	* NOTE: this specifically works if the house is for sale since it renders differently.
	* This will download the highest resolution available per image.
	*/



	/**
	* STEP 1: Make sure to SCROLL through all images so they appear on DOM.
	* No need to click any images.
