(I thought this was posted already but it never did so I am rewriting it now)<\/p>\n
Chapter 1:<\/p>\n
This chapter had similarities to what I did in Geog 291, but was different since it is applied to ArcOnline. I started strong but quickly got confused when trying to upload the Redlands data. As I continued, I was able to familiarize myself with each of the tools and discovered there is a lot you can do. I think this chapter was well explained, but lacked some necessary pictures, I felt I needed to better understand what I was doing. As I navigated through 1.4 I ran into another issue, I was unable to complete step 11. I could not find the “select layer field of sort by”; anytime I clicked where it would be, it disappeared. I reviewed other students’ maps in our organization to see what they looked like since mine did not end up looking as it should.<\/p>\n
Chapter 2:<\/p>\n
For chapter 2 it focused on Smart mapping and storytelling with GIS. The first tutorial was to create a feature layer using geocoding. I had to download the data from the main website onto an external drive. The tutorials were relatively easy compared to the first chapter. In tutorial 2.2 I was able to stylize all of the needed arrows and colors however it didn’t look quite right. I ran into another problem in the third tutorial when trying to use expressions to calculate things. Towards the end of the chapter we created a story about US population change. I had trouble stylizing some things in the story but I believe it looks as it should. I didn’t run into very many problems in the last tutorial the chapter. Overall, the story i created conveyed the proper message asked by the book.<\/p>\n
Application:<\/p>\n
An application could be made about the population change in Delaware. I’ve heard from many people that Delaware has quickly became a very populated area in a short amount of time. I could create a story map showing how many people have moved here within the last ten years and where they chose to within the city.<\/p>\n
