Chapter 4
I found this chapter a little hard to navigate solely because of the “adding clauses” section of the tutorial. However, other than that, I was able to do the rest successfully. I now feel more comfortable working with GIS in general, and I feel capable finding and completing basic tasks.
Chapter 5
After Chapter Four’s difficulties, this chapter and tutorials made me feel a lot better. This chapter was all about spatial data. The Hammer-Aitoff projection is also pretty cool to be able to create. The only discrepancy I had was specifying the display units for the map, however, other than that, it was fine.
Chapter 6
This chapter is about geoprocessing. This chapter was also a little harder than I anticipated as well. The pairwise dissolve tool was okay at first, but the more I used it the harder I found it to navigate. Overall, I feel good about this week’s chapters and feel more confident in my GIS abilities
