Intro to GIS - Week 1 Lab Assignment Completed

1/15/2015

Intro to GIS - Week 1 Lab - ArcGIS Overview - Process Summary Details:

1.      This lab introduced me to the basic use and navigating of ArcGIS and the many tools.  Particular use of toolbars, zoom in/out, pan, and view options was emphasized.  Use of shape files and interaction with attribute tables, including selection of specific records both in the table and in the map was emphasized.  I learned about coordinates including the meaning of positive and negative coordinates. 

2.       I had the most difficulty navigating in the file layout as I kept selecting the wrong item and moving it out of the print layout area.  I am looking forward to learning more about the formatting of Legends – this lab did not cover much more than simply inserting a legend.
