McMahon week 5

Chapter 4:

From chapter 1 a lot of the key focuses were to create attribute tables and add data into the map. I was able to label the data and download it from other sources but it was difficult to find the folders in which they were in and import them. But I was able to get it after a while and edit the map.I was able to work with spacial databases and I thought that this skill was important.

Chapter 5:

This chapter focused more on locations and longitudes and latitudes. It got easier as the chapter went on because I started to figure out where somethings were. But I did get lost in some areas because the chapter started to assume I remembered the steps, but I still need the step by step process. Some problems came up with the end of each chapter and I thought that the “Your turn” sections were confusing. I thought these maps were interesting thought because I could actually see a difference by the end of the section. The Microsoft section was also confusing but I thought it was good to get some experience in this area. This chapter used censuses.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Chapter 6:

This chapter was a lot easier than the chapter 5. I was able to make attribute tables and edit the input and outputs of the data. By the end of the chapter it was pretty easy to assume the same steps were going to be taken. I was able to use Pairwise tool and get familiar with it. Overall I think this chapter allowed me to get familiar with tool searching and making tables.
