Monday I again spent the day working on a GIS map of a Delaware suburb. In this map I was tasked with adding and editing all of the utilities, much like last week. I first put in all of the sewer lines and other associated structures. I then wanted to move on to the storm infrastructure, but unfortunately Arc didn’t want to cooperate. For some reason when creating a new feature it would not snap to the location we needed it too. I took some time and played around with Arc trying to diagnose the problem, however I had no luck. Being unsuccessful, I called over Janelle to see if she could help me come to a conclusion and resolve the problem. She too searched around and tried a few different things but none worked. This was extra strange because this same problem happened last week and it only occurred when we tried to use create or edit the storm lines or infrastructure.  So I’m intrigued to see if Janelle finds a resolution to this problem and discover what the issue was. After this detour, I went ahead and started to add in the new and edit the existing water infrastructure. This was very time consuming, as the water has the most of all the other utilities. However, I managed to get almost completely finished by the end of my day. With about thirty minutes remaining, Janelle needed to use her computer so she had me continue the job search. During this time I found some great opportunities and applied for a handful of jobs!

Thursday, I got to attend the Delaware City Town and Gown event which was really interesting. Although it wasn’t a very long experience it was still cool getting to be inside the meeting and see where these things take place. Also, being in the photoshoot was pretty fun, lol!
