Coast Guard Project Due Oct 4
- Review homework & ensure everyone is member of team.
- Introduce the Spatial Analyst Toolbar
- Explore Surface Analysis functions
- Download 30-meter DEM for Arlington Quad from TNRIS. [DIRECT LINK]
- ArcGIS can not read DEM (digital elevation models). It must be extracted to a location on your computer with no spaces in the path. Then use ArcToolbox/Conversion Tools/To raster/DEM to Raster
- Create contour lines, slope, aspect, and hillshade.
- Class Exercise: Where in the D/FW Metroplex should we open a new pizzeria?
- Download materials here
- We will be following (kind of) the Guide_WithoutGeoprocessing.doc.
- Same dataset we used last class and homework.
- E-Book (Using Spatial Analyst) (on-campus access) -- Through page 39. Take screenshot of results of the Quick-Start tutorial (new school) and bring to class.
- Access Book (on-campus only)
- Accompanying Data
- (Add team members on this paper) Write a 1-page paper (as short or long as you need to make it - a single paragraph or two is fine if you hit the following two points) explaining how the site suitability process works. I am looking for two items. First, I want you to explain how the process works...the steps. Second, I want you to provide an example from your research (or personal) interests where site suitability process is applicable.
