Isaacs Week 2

In chapter 1 I struggled a little bit finding where everything was including the files I had to download. I eventually figured out where they were and what I had to do. After that it was pretty smooth sailing there was a couple spots that I got stuck and had to look up where to go or retrace my steps. Overall, I thought it was cool to navigate through and learn where things were located at. 

Chapter 2 was more complicated and took longer to work through. It was still interesting to read about the different possibilities with using this program. I thought the geocode part was cool since I am a Data Analytics major and have taken some computer science. It was cool to see the simple code and how it performs in making things like maps. I also liked how the layers worked and how everything you do doesn’t have to be made by you. There are already made to use layers built in to make things quicker. 

An application that would be interesting based off these chapters would be making a map for fishing. I could have different spots for fishing with conditions or basic things about the area or maybe what species of fish it carries.
