Hello, my name is Kathleen, and I am from Dallas, Texas. I am a junior majoring in astrophysics with a minor in environmental science. I plan to work in meteorology or compact object research. I took the quiz, and I did the ArcGIS online account setup in GEOG 291. When exploring my account, I found that the help section has a multitude of resources, such as blogs, tutorials, and setup help. Also, the online community is active and has a surprising amount of community types, such as Python and roads and highways. While reading through the get started pages, I noticed that there are a lot of keyboard shortcuts for Mac when editing map layers. I also learned about floor-aware maps, which can show floor plans and are helpful when looking at optimizing large spaces. I am glad the training course went so in-depth on the types of sharing. I really enjoyed the activities they provided; they helped me solidify the content from the readings. The two courses I found most interesting are the field-led data collection and management using ArcGIS course and the ArcGIS field maps migration guide course.

This shows the distribution of dust with the Valles Marineris terrain.
