I apologize, but I couldn't figure out how to make these links active. So, you must copy and paste the link into your browser. I also couldn't figure out how to start my power point slide automatically once its opened so I hope you enjoy it nonetheless!

Week 10

This was one of the easier maps this semester and if I had the time over the Spring Break Holiday it would've been very beneifical to complete and earn the extra credit! Nonetheless I learned a great deal and I didn't have many set backs.

Week 9 Map

This map was a lot easier to complete as I finally took the initiative and asked my fellow classmates. Although, my inquires were pretty late in the week because my Spring Break was last week, I got a response back quick with awesome instructions, so thanks you all!

Q1. I used the intersect tool, it gave me the same output, there were 82 records.
Q2. I used the Erase tool because I wanted to exclude areas with the conservation from the buffers_union_single.
Q3. There were 78 features in the layer. The largest area feature was 776503, and the smallest feature was 748.

Week 7

Initially I had a lot of trouble with this lab, mainly because I couldn't relate what I learned in ESRI to the directions that were given. Apparently I was looking too much into the assignment and at the end it was very easy and not time consuming at all, so I hope after all of that I actually did the assignment correctly.

Week 6 UWF Campus

This assignment was a lot more easier to put together. I think the readings fro ESRI really helped me learn the materials and use them while working on this map. In the uwf_n file my RMS error was 17.56 and I used the 1st Order Polynomial. In the uwf_s1 file my RMS error was 14.59 and I used the 2nd Order Polynomial. One problem I did have with the map was trying to select appropriate colors. After SEVERAL attempts I decided on the following, which in my opinion was not the best look, but that is definetely something I need to work on.

Week 5 Map 2

Well this map was a little easier than the first as I already had all of the information. The only task I really had was trying to display all of the map elements appropriately. In this map I emphasized the land cover and hydrography-polygon.

Week 5 Map 1

Wow! This was truly an eventful lab. I had so much difficulty trying to locate the layers that I gave up. Well that is until Amber gave me some really good advice. I learned a lot this lab, but most importantly I learned to ask questions! Although my lab is late I am still going to complete the assignment as it will be an advantage for my future labs and certification.

In this map I focused on the all the required data, but mainly Invasive plants and Public Land. I messed around with the layers for quite some time, but I didn't feel that the map depicted all the layers adequately without removing and adjusting some of the layers.
