Lab 6: Georeferencing, Editing, and 3D Map Creation

Image
This week's lab was difficult for me to complete due to lack of time and my wifi service being constantly interrupted. However, I was able to complete the required work without any other issues. I completed the quizzes last week and reviewed the information from the textbook on georeferencing before starting the lab assignment. The required map for the assignment, seen below, was relatively easy to produce. It shows the UWF campus with the buildings, main roads, and the location of Heritage Hall. The inset map shows where Heritage Hall is located relative to the location and the required buffer zone of the Eagles nest on the property.  I will be completing the 3D map later on and adding it to this post as well as my submission for the class. Due to the time constraints previously mentioned, I was unable to complete the second map before the submission deadline.

Suitability Analysis 2

Image
For this suitability assessment, I needed to find the areas that black bears would most likely move through to get between the protected areas. -          I began by reclassifying the landcover and elevation rasters with their suitability values. I then used the Euclidean distance tool for the roads raster before reclassifying it with its suitability values. After that, I used the weighted overlay tool to combine the 3 rasters using the specified percentages before inverting it using the raster calculator tool with the equation [Cost_Surface = 10 – “Weighted_Suit”]. Using the newly created cost surface and both park areas, I created 2 cost distance rasters using the cost distance tool and then combined them using the corridor tool. I then reclassified it to represent the best possible corridors and changed the symbology.

Lab 4: Vector Analysis

Image
 This week's material included reading chapters 2 and 4 from our textbook, along with a lecture and 2 quizzes. The lab for this week had two parts. In the first part of the lab, I learned how to complete spatial and attribute queries. I was also able to practice creating and connecting to the correct geodatabase. In the second part of the lab, I learned to use the buffer and overlay modeling tools. At the end of the second part of the lab, I used the combined knowledge I gained in previous labs to create the attached map.  The map shows campsites of various sizes in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, at De Soto National Forest. Sites colored in blue have a smaller area, while those in yellow are the largest.
