Wk12 Geocoding

In week 12 the lab focused on  creating address locators, conducting geocodes to match the addresses, we learned how to fix geocoding problems,  and we created  a route analysis. The lab also included much of the previous labs .

The map I generated shows two data frames. Frame 1 shows an outline of Lake County, Florida with the EMS locations included. In Frame 2 it shows a zoomed view of the optimal route for the three specified EMS location that I have chosen.

WK10 Vector2

In lab 10 we learned how to set buffers on layer data, unify layers, and erase layers. We learned how to utilize Arcpy and run analysis with script, also learned how to select data depending on the integer placed in the field column. The map I created shows a map of possible campsites with conservation areas in the Desoto Mississippi.  In the map I placed a 100 meter buffer for the conservation areas, and deleted that buffer from the surrounding campsite. This gave the campsites a 100 meter cushion between them and the conservation area.

Calhoun County Florida

   I was assigned to create an Arcmap of Calhoun County Florida. At a glance the lab appeared to be something that I did not want any part of, but as the lab progressed I began to better understand what was needed to accomplish this lab. I actually found the lab enjoyable in the end. The only part that I did not like was having to search through the many files in order to get the correct data to fit what one was trying to show. I learned a lot in this lab, not only did this lab use the teachings of the previous labs, but it also taught me other methods of manipulating physical features of the projected data. With this lab we familiarized ourselves with FGDL, Labins, and NationalMap.gov. I also learned how to search and download the correct data needed for ArcMaps.
  The ArcMap I created actually consist of two maps, the Map on the left is a basic map layout showing the major roads, cities, major rivers, parks, invasive plants of Calhoun County. The map to the right is a map that shows the hydrology, elevations, land cover, and the DOQQ of Calhoun County Florida.
