Module 2 Lab

 

In this lab we learned how to insert written script into ArcGIS Pro notebook and then find bugs and fix them This was different than anything I have done before, so it took me a while to differentiate a spot where an int needed to be a string. Once I finally figured this out, the rest felt easy. We then had to write our own code to take the written script of the dice game and make it play out and then remove a specified integer from it. A lot of the language, especially complex statements like having the program take the count of the # of times the integer appears and remove them from the list. Some of the ways you put these statements together still feels different, but I am getting the hang of it. I tried to make my script of the game sound a bit more interactive like a video game, so I made it say "Removing..." as if it was actively working on doing this task.

About Me

  My name is Reese and I am in my third set of courses in this GIS program at UWF. I work full time as an Environmental Specialist for a local municipality, which is what my story map is all about (  https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/4cf090796d3f4682a018a53db55ee664 Links to an external site.  ). I have helped with lots of GIS projects in my environmental career, and taken one GIS course in my Environmental Science bachelors degree before I started this program. I absolutely love geography, history, and maps in general. Because I have done so much GIS work in the environmental and natural resource field already, I decided that I wanted to become even more skilled in this realm, which is why I joined the GIS program here. My goal in going through this program is to be as valuable to my city in environmental and geographic information science as possible. I also want to be the person who is looked to when any complex questions could be answered through GIS.   I...

M1 Lab: Visual Interpretation

Image
  This map layout was created to assist in learning how to identify areas/objects from an image based on traits, such as shape, size, shadows, patterns, and associations. I took an old image from Pensacola Beach and found various features based on these different traits. For example, I chose the pier for shape, as it was very distinct. I chose the ocean for pattern because the ripples of the water was how i could tell what it was. I chose the water tower for shadows because the shadow is the only way I could distinguish it. I chose the beach sand for association because it would be hard to tell what it is without being next to the ocean. The categories of traits are color coordinated to easily tell what traits I used to choose the objects in the image. This was a new skill for me, so it took me some time to get used to doing it.

Module 3 Map Sharing and Projections

Image
  This assignment made a lot of sense for me. Being able to create the domains of the map that I was going to be collecting on made it very simple to set things up in a way that made sense in the field. I thought that the different ways that we learned to share a map like this (like the KML file) were simple and got the job done without any hiccups. The only thing that I got majorly confused about was that I had to log back into to ArcGIS pro to see my points after I had collected them. It took me a while to figure out why mine was not working. I also liked learning how to share a map on google earth because many people do not have accessibility to Arc that I work with, but it it easy to tell someone how to go on google earth. This lab brought a lot of things together for me that I have seen the GIS manager that I work with do, but had not learned to do myself. I enjoyed creating the domains because I know what will make sense when collecting in the field, as I have done a lot of t...
