Discuss what the talk is all about (provide a brief summary) and your engagement with the topic (how it resonates with you personally, your research, interests, etc.)
Relate the topic to a broader discussion of geography; use at least one topic in geography we discussed in class.

Describe the projected coordinate system you chose,and why.What is the longitude of the central meridian?

Lab 3: Coordinate Systems

Complete the chapter 3 tutorial (Price, exercises 1-39). Then do the following:

Work with the geodatabase you created for New York State in Lab #2

⦁ Choose a projected coordinate system appropriate for New York State. You should use the appropriate UTM projection
It will be NAD 1983(2011) UTM Zone [you figure out the correct zone]

Hint: You can google for ‘UTM zone map’ to see where each zone is located

⦁ Reproject the New York State feature classes you created in Lab #2 using the correct UTM projection
⦁ When you pull up the Project tool, these are listed under the Projected Coordinate Systems/UTM/North America folder:

⦁ Create a map of your New York State data, using a minimum of three layers. Choose appropriate symbols/ colors. Customize the map layout. Export the map.
⦁ Turn in a report with the following information;
⦁ Describe the projected coordinate system you chose,and why.What is the name of the projection? What type of linear units does it use?What is the longitude of the central meridian? Does it use the equator as the latitude of origin?
Hint: This info is in the layer properties box under the ‘XY Coordinate System’ tab (right-click on layer name in either ArcCatalog or ArcMap)
⦁ Include your map.

Examine each of the feature classes in the usdata geodatabase and decide which ones can be exported to your geodatabase.

Lab 2: Managing Data

Complete the chapter 2 tutorial (pg 59-71). Then follow these steps to create your own geodatabase:

1. Create a new project folder in your gisclass folder (or whatever your class folder is named in your USB). Within it, create a new, empty file geodatabase for data relevant to New York state.

2. Examine each of the feature classes in the usdata geodatabase and decide which ones can be exported to your geodatabase. You should extract data from:

states
counties
cities
rivers
interstates

3. Export each of the datasets to your newly-created state geodatabase. Be careful to export only the features in New York state

4. Add all of your newly created data to ArcMap. Customize the colors and styles of each layer to create a map.

Turn in a report with the following information:

1. For each feature class you extracted, indicate whether you used a clip or an extraction query. If clip, indicate what clip boundary file was used. If query, include the query expression you used

2. Graphics

Screenshots of your geodatabase—with all of its contents—from ArcCatalog

Map of your data from ArcMap

Discuss how your topic has diffused from its origin.Where has it diffused to? What factors led to its diffusion there?What kind of diffusion has it experienced?

Drinkable And Non-Drinkable Water

The outline format: Your outline must be formatted as described. Please note that this format will be assessed in your grade:

Use an alphanumeric sequence
Sections should be indented and aligned
Follow the suggested order of the required elements
Use brief and bulleted but detailed and descriptive phrases.
The required elements: Your outline should contain the following elements in this order:

I. The Introduction: This section previews your topic and the details you will cover in the body of your presentation. It should be very brief, but include:

A. The food, cuisine, invention or idea that you are going to discuss.

B. Why you chose this topic.

C. A preview of the regions where your topic has developed and then diffused to.

II. The Body (Content Sections): In the body, you must address how the four geographic concepts mentioned in the presentation instructions (regions, cultural landscapes, diffusion, and distance decay) relate to your topic.

A. Regions: Discuss the origin region or regions of your topic, with specific attention to the geographic qualities of the region that influenced the development of your topic.

B. Cultural Landscape: Discuss how the landscape in the region(s) described above have been shaped by the culture that gave rise to your topic, and how your topic might be reflected in that landscape.

C. Diffusion: Discuss how your topic has diffused from its origin.Where has it diffused to? What factors led to its diffusion there?What kind of diffusion has it experienced?

D. Distance Decay: Discuss how your topic has changed as it has diffused away from the region(s) of its origin. Explain these changes with reference to the geographic qualities of the regions it has diffused to.

III. The Conclusion Section: this section should contain four to six points that sum up the main points from the body of the outline.

Start your conclusion with one sentence summarizing some basic information about your topic.
Continue with a brief summary (1-2 sentences) about the important characteristics of its origin region(s).
Include a brief note about relevant cultural landscapes.
Include a brief summary (1-2 sentences) about the diffusion of your topic and the distance decay it experienced.
Wrap up the conclusion section with a closing note that provides brief information about why this topic was of interest to you, and a fact about your topic you found interesting.
IV. Reference section: This is not just the reference page; rather, referencing should occur throughout the outline as it will in your presentation. Therefore, your outline should include both a separate reference page containing a minimum of five sources listed in proper APA reference list format AND internal citations throughout the outline where appropriate. Be sure to see the resources below for assistance regarding in-text citations and reference list formatting, and/or ask me if you have any additional questions.

Identify a real or hypothetical example of where a GIS professional is faced with an ethical decision.

This assignment topic will examine ethics for the GIS professional. Here’s what is expected.

First, return to the readings on ethics applied to the GIS profession and the GIS Code of Ethics ( uploaded documents, page. 27-37. Springer Berlin Heidelberg. Obermeyer2009.pdf, In addition, consider the readings for the Location Privacy topic, in particular page.500-510. Harvey2014.pdf.

Then create a discussion topic that contains these two elements:

1. Identify a real or hypothetical example of where a GIS professional is faced with an ethical decision. You can consider an example from your own experience, an example from the readings, or create a hypothetical scenario. Try to come up with a scenario where there isn’t necessarily an obvious answer.

2. Describe how the GIS professional would apply the GIS Code of Ethics in the given scenario. To what extent is the code clear enough? How easily is it to follow the code? More generally, does the code provide adequate guidance for specific scenarios for an individual GIS professional to make the “right” decision.

Find a theme and datasets for a small project of Web-GIS software and create your webGIS on the there web software listed down.

Task:

1. Find a theme and datasets for a small project of Web-GIS software and create your webGIS on the there web software listed down.

2. Use the web-GIS

a. Mango Map

b. ArcGIS online

c. An additional one of YOUR own choice!

3. Find a resource of data you can download and an idea for simple project attraction places in Manchester and surrounded city and you may find Shapefile from any organization such as city council.

4. Create your dataset and find the theme.

5. A plane of flow chart to define the steps such ….

6. Create your GIS this project on the 3 different above 3 applications.

7. Print power point slides including example of how your steps apply in each web application.

8. Attach the links of each application.

9. Some sort of assessment for using the the three applications in away where you put criteria from 1 to 10 for example. (, more attractive, how easy to use, limitation , missing , things you would like to there, functionality(like some web application is simple where the other one like esri’s ArcGIS online is a little bite more interactive functionality where that date is put in it)

Extra explain for the steps:

Application – do the research first! (30 DAY trials)

Prepare a plan in the form of a flow chart first that clearly

Defines the steps (method) you will use.
