World Population Map

In this exercise I edited a world map by using the symbology feature to assign colors based on the population attributes for each country. The lab went smoothly. I liked how the directions left some room to figure out how to do the steps, instead of giving every single step. One thing I learned was that when adding text you can use HTML tags to edit the text.

Potential Youth Center Locations

In this exercise I found potential locations for a municipal youth center based on two requirements. The location had to be in a residential zone and that area had to have a high concentration of 5 - 17 year-old children. The module went smoothly. I learned to save my work quite frequently after loosing connection with eDesktop and having to start over.

Planning a Trip to San Diego

In this module I planned a trip, by using the different layers of data. The ESRI directions were very easy to follow. This exercise was a big help in navigating through ArcGIS.
