Chapter 1 walks us through the basic concepts and important terms to know for ArcGIS Online which includes the history of the development of GIS in the 1960s by Roger Tomlison and later evolved into a web version in the 2000s for better accessibility. The beginning of this chapter discusses\u00a0 the different ways in which WebGIS is used and is growing in different organizations including government, business, and even personal daily life. Tutorial 1introduced us to the basics of how to create attatchment such as adding a photo, as well as how to create a web map and add symbols and change symbol styles, and configure popups for such symbols.<\/p>\n
Chapter 2 begun by walking us through how to create feature layers which included us using data from the 2019 and 2020 census data and using arrows to represent the populations in cities across the United States have either grown or decreased. We also created popups to show the growth and median household incomes of those same cities and learned how to add images and charts to those popups. In Chapter 2, we also learned how to create stories using ArcGIS StoryMaps to show all of the maps that we’ve made. Using ArcGIS StoryMaps, we were able to create map actions which provide a more interactive experience with looking at cities of our choosing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
