chapter 7<\/p>\n

I enjoyed completing chapter 7, especially the first few tutorials, where I got to just move around and adjust the outlines of buildings and correct them. It was fun to do but it also made a lot of sense. I liked that there were only 4 in this one, I was able to take in each tutorial really fast and go back through to make sure I fully understood. I actually really enjoyed doing these ones because I have gotten much more accustomed to all the contols like adding features, symbols, bookmarks, and the repetitive tabs.<\/p>\n

chapter 8<\/p>\n

It was really easy to do these ones, considering it was only 2 tutorials, but I still feel like I gained a lot from them and got valuable knowledge on Geocoding and analyzing locations, plus learning about things with zipcodes. Most of the infomation was stuff I had begun to feel confident with, doing things with the creating locator, for example, went smoothly. When rematching attendees by zipcode on 8-2 I got a bit lost at a certain part where I had to click the match button for the zipcodes, for some reason it wouldn’t load for me. Also, the create locator section kept resetting on me and deleting my data.<\/p>\n

chapter 9<\/p>\n

This one had the most tutorials technically but it still wasnt a long time to get through. Buffers were something I had been confused on before too, so i liked being reintroduced to this chapter. I know you use them to find whats near the features being buffered, but seeing them in action helped a lot. 9-1 and 9-2 on the swimming pools in Pittsburgh and estimating the number of youths was really quick and easy. I also thought it was cool how it highlighted the ones within half a mile. I also thought the dissolve option was really neat, helping with overlapping buffer rings helps make it much better to look at.<\/p>\n

9-3 it estimates gravity models of geography, you can see the amount of attraction between two features. I had trouble figuring this part out, it was probably the hardest for me out of all the units. It wasnt that bad but I kept getting stuck at the parts where it would ask me to click the service area layer, it would genuinely not give me what I needed, it took me a second to try and figure out how to get through these tutorials at the end but it was still cool. I think analyzing the optimal soltuions and doing your turn was difficult, but it was also a pretty informative.<\/p>\n
