<\/p>\nChapter 5:<\/p>\n
On a practical note this chapter might be difficult with my commuting status\u2026 do we have to do this on the GIS lab computers or is there a cloud we can access? Addendum: No haha<\/p>\n
The data analysis and deep learning mention makes me wonder if I could apply that to my project, making identifying invasive plants easier? I want to do something with that in this tutorial and I feel a little let down now.<\/p>\n
Most of the pre-tutorial seems more important to OWU than us. Unless my practical concern is a concern. Also it\u2019s all so much technical jargon that it’s hard to keep up.<\/p>\n
I remember sharing maps from ArcGISPro in 291 so I understood the first parts of the tutorial pretty well. One thing I noticed was that the file sizes for the cached layers were a lot lower than the tutorial said, maybe it was another update or I skipped something, but I tried to go back and there weren\u2019t any errors. It will be interesting to see how the same layers compare as different types. I guess using the web maps provided means I won\u2019t find out if I made a mistake with the detail level sliders provided.<\/p>\n
Making the story with the provided web maps and app was pretty easy. I struggle a little to format the stories and make them look nice still though. I\u2019m pretty sure the map on the left in the app is the raster tile layer, because I don\u2019t have to zoom as far in for the features to disappear. I can definitely see how vector layers are more useful for general cartography, while raster tile layers would be more for specific requests.<\/p>\n

Chapter 6<\/p>\n
The concept of smart cities and smart homes is a little frightening to me\u2026 but I see how important GIS is to those things and the IoT. Without those connections between everything GIS could not exist, and the connections themselves rely on GIS.<\/p>\n
Geofences seem like the real time version of the buffers we did in ArcGISPro.<\/p>\n
Is there a dashboard for making one mega franken-app<\/p>\n
Some dating apps also use missions I think?<\/p>\n
The tutorial starts by having us look at emergency dispatch maps that constantly refresh, then add live highway views. I think I see stuff like these for trail cams sometimes.<\/p>\n
To put the map, gauge and list together I just kind of dragged them and didn\u2019t need to resize the map. There is an extra list in my dashboard because I didn\u2019t do all the steps on the first one and then couldn\u2019t figure out how to delete it!<\/p>\n
As I added more elements, things got kind of squished and the pie chart became tiny. Can a dashboard have multiple pages? Adjusting the map helped slightly to make things more proportional, though.<\/p>\n
I couldn\u2019t see the text color change but maybe none of the presumably fake people were having a heart attack? I tried messing with other colors in other parts of the code and making sure both highlighted parts were in there but to no avail. There were 3\u2019s on the list so I did do something wrong -_- I couldn\u2019t get any of the arcade parts to work so I\u2019m skipping that because honestly!!! I\u2019m doing this late and going kind of insane.<\/p>\n
Here is my dash board, good luck knowing if someone\u2019s having a heart attack.<\/p>\n
