  Week 4 Vector Analysis labs Vector Lab One Student Learning Outcomes: ▪  Recognize the different types of shapefiles and feature classes ▪ Recall basic components of a geodatabase ▪ Implement the GIS analytical process ▪ Differentiate between attribute and location queries ▪ Identify parts of an attribute query expression ▪ Use various spatial selection methods to perform a location query ▪ Use the statistics tool in an attribute table to sum values ▪ Describe what is happening behind the scenes when data is being queried ▪ Execute a spatial join between two tables to create a new layer Vector lab one focused on the concepts listed above in order to create a geodatabase which we used to create a map depicting Pensacola county where we later identified through various processes the location of several key features as well as joined tables to create a new layer Tasks ▪ Explore and Create a geodatabase ▪ Import an .mxd ▪ Select feature by Location ▪ Find Intersecting Features ▪...

ArcGIS Field Maps and Projections Lab               For this weeks Lab assignments we were tasked with created a map displaying the safety features of our town or city. In order to accomplish this we had to explore the functionality of both ArcGIS Pro and Arc GIS Online to Create Domains, Feature Classes and Web Maps in order to gather location data with ArcGIS Field Maps and display our public safety information. Student Learning Outcomes : ▪ Create an empty Feature Class ▪ Share a feature class as a web layer ▪ Collect Data using ArcGIS Field Maps ▪ Create a map package ▪ Troubleshoot map package errors ▪ Share a map package, an ArcGIS Online Map, and a KML Google Map via the web     I chose to document the location and condition of several Fire Hydrants in my community which i later displayed on a Google Earth Map as seen below.  This lab highlighted the versatility of ArcGIS as well as how these applications may be used by emerg...
