wieghted overlay

These are images of the overlays 1 and 2. I had trouble adding my age choice to the models so they are not in the overlays.

Distances

These images show the distances to UWF and Whiting Field with one showing the age factor.

Santa Rosa County

This is a basemap of Santa Rosa County showing the cities , UWF, and Whiting Field which were my choices for locating a place to live. We needed to be close to Whiting Field for my husband and to UWF for me.

I had a little trouble with the third portion of the project. Some of the directions were a little confusing.

In the first overlay each factor had the same weight. It seems like that would make it more difficult to find the perfect place to live. In the second overlay they changed the weight of some factors which seemed to give them more options.

Distance


The four pictures above show the distances from the NFRMC and the University of Florida and house values and percentage of people ages 40-49 based on the couples criteria for finding a place to live in Alachua.

Oil Spill Summary

The oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico occurred on April 20, 2010. Since then it has spread quickly throughout the gulf affecting the coastlines of Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and the Florida panhandle. The animation exercise shows where the oil has spread over time. A graph of the oil spread can be useful in predicting when and where the oil will go next and aiding in cleanup and preventative efforts. For the oil spill animation exercise useful data for graphing this might include the speed at which the oil spreads or travels toward the coast, how many gallons per day, weather conditions in the gulf which could affect the travel rates, and currents. As the oil moves closer to the coast local tide and weather information could help determine how far inland it goes.

Infrastructure at risk from storm surge


MS Coast elevation

This map was my favorite one to work with. Most of the maps I've done used a lot of different symbols and labels where all I had to do was figure out the right size color and shape of the symbols to make the map look good. I really enjoyed playing around with the different colors to make sure everything was visible and easy to look at.

This is supposed to be a 3d image for the wild map. I did the symbolize a 3D raster exercise from module 1. The tools in Arcscene are a lot of fun to use.

This is the model builder, step 8, image. I'm not sure if this is what it is supposed to look like.
This is a map of recreational sites (water trails and bird sanctuaries) in the Tampa area. I had some trouble with this map. I could not get the land areas to show on the map at first.
This is a map of the Tampa area cities and roads.

This assignment seemed easy enough, but I'm sure I missed something somewhere. Here are my answers to the questions.
1. I used the symmetrical difference tool. I don't know why I chose this particular tool, but I did not notice any big differences.
2. For the conservation area I used the erase tool.
3. There were 6 features in the possible sites layer. The largest was 3.680903 and the smallest was 0.377479.

I'm not entirely sure I did this right.

For the first photo I got an RMS of 19.27954. For the second photo I used 2nd order polynomial and 16 points and got RMS error of 8. 97384. I had a little trouble with the second photo, mainly a few buildings not lining up. Most of the features match.

Haiti


I found this map on the ESRI website. On the site the map has different layers to choose from including post disaster imagery, topography, street and satellite maps. The site also has other useful maps such as Haiti basemaps and hospital data.
