My first App was based around the content covered in chapter 3, which had the option to utilize both 3D and 2D maps within the same application in order to visualize the information in multiple different ways. I created a section widget and added two separate maps within it, with one being 2D and the other being 3D. The topic I chose to base my maps on was the distribution of lanternflies, an invasive species of planthopper, throughout the eastern side of the U.S. To create some differentiation between the 3D and 2D map, I added 3D terrain to display the dispersal among different levels of elevation.

I had made the second app pulling from concepts covered in the tutorial of chapter 6, which covered the bases of real time data tracking on ArcGIS. The data I decided to cover was centered around deer road kill reports in Washington, which are tracked by salvage permit holders. I thought it would be interesting to see if the rate of reports changed in the presence of a predator, so I also added a dataset displaying the different recorded wolf packs around the state. In reference to chapter 6’s content, I made sure that both the wolf and deer road kill datasets had tracking timelines that continue into the present, which means that they are updated regularly. In order to flesh out the map a bit more, I added highway markers and popular scenic roads. I thought it would also be cool to add cameras as well, showing different highways in a zone with higher rates of deer kills.
