Chapter 7:
Chapter 7 focusses heavily on 3D mapping and web scenes. Some of the main takeaways include gaining a general understanding of what web scenes are and the terminology associated with them, learning about different scene layers ad the features used to build them, and creating web scenes with tools like Scene Viewer. The chapter Aldo covers concepts such as 3D visualization, the metaverse, AEC (Architecture, Engineering, and Construction), and the broader value of GIS, as well as how to create and use feature layer that contain z-values. Overall, these topics provide a solid foundation for understanding how 3D maps work, which is more complex than creating standard 2D maps.
My application for this is making a map of mosquito West Nile virus cases in Ohio by county, but having the counties rise up (z plane) base on the amount of cases.
