Chapter 5: I found reading the introduction to this chapter very helpful because it related how learning GIS can transition right into real life work and why we need GIS in the first place. This chapter focused more on the big picture GIS world and how it fits into enterprises and machines. One important aspect that I pulled out from this chapter was city planning using GIS. Completing the assignment was a little challenging. There was a lot of different types of GIS applications that needed to be added and changed in this assignment. Lots of flipping back and forth between things. But it was a short chapter, so that was beneficial, and I still learned a lot.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Chapter 6: One important thing from this chapter that stuck out to me was the differences between the types of spatiotemporal data that GIS has the ability to do. They include moving, discrete, stationary, and change. Creating maps, I believe that change maps would be the most intriguing to try and create due to the fact that when making the maps, you can physically see the change in GIS of the area. Going a step beyond and making a timelapse of the change map would also be a cool task to complete. The assignment for this chapter was fine to complete, again, lots of different aspects being added together. It was a little long so took time to complete the assignments and parts of this chapter.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Application: Based on my interests in trying to make a city layout to see what layout makes the most sense, you can create a layout and compare the different layers using these applications.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
