Aqib Ali Week 4

Chapter 5:
In chapter 5 I worked with ARCGIS Pro app. I connected ArcGIS Pro to a portal, practiced publishing tile layers and built a simple comparison web app to view those layers side by side. also saw how different tile types work like raster tiles, vector tiles, map image layers, and feature tiles. I initially had some trouble with the portal because I was unable to get th organization name right I was putting OWU but the appropriate name was owugis which I was able to figure out after some trial and error and help from a friend. I also saw how level of detail had big  impact on the size of the caches, this was much bigger than what I had expected.

Chapter 6:

Chapter 6 is about spatiotemporal data which is data that has both location and time. It also talks about Internet of things which is that sensors in devices are constantly sending collecting and sending data to the cloud. I was able to see live camera feeds from the highways. I then worked on creating a dashboard that showed list of emergencies, their type , location, number of open incidents, and contact numbers and divide those incidents by categories. I also worked on making cardiac incidents highlighted so that it can be prioiritized by first responders. I had problems with this because it involved making changes to the code and for one of the steps the code in the book didnt match the one in the software, I used ChatGPT to help me alter the code so it can fit the format and run in the ArcGIS.
The second exercise was creating a dashboard that shows changes in population in US overtime. I worked on configuring this dashboard and customizing this dashboard.
A good use for this will be to see how  climate and temperatures have changed overtime with respect to areas to better see which areas are most affected by climate change.
