Intro to GIS: HOA 1: Name: Arnob Rahee How to Use ArcGIS Question 1.1: (1 point) What measurement units was the initial map made in? Foot, Degree, Decimal Degree, Quadrant Bearing, Inch, Point, Meter and Square_Foot Question 1.2 : (5 points) Fill out the following chart with the information on the datum, projected coordinate system, and units of measurement of each of the five layers. Layer GCS Datum Projected Coordinate System Units of Measurement Airports D North American 1983 NAD 1983 StatePlane Ohio North FIPS 3401 (US Feet) US Feet Areawater Unknown Coordinate System Unknown Coordinate System Unknown Coordinate System Boundary Unknown Coordinate System Unknown Coordinate System Unknown Coordinate System Roads D North American 1983 NAD 1983 UTM Zone 17N Degree (0.0174532925199433) Structures D North American 1983 NAD 1983 UTM Zone 17N Meters (1.0) Question 1.3: (1 point) Why can’t you just use the “project” option to fix the coordinate info for the areawater layer like you did for the airports layer? (hint: think carefully about what “project” is really doing). The "project" option in ArcGIS does not just change the coordinate system of a layer. The areawater layer is in an undefined datum, which means that it does not have a defined reference point Question 1.4: (2 points) Which symbology did you choose for each of the following for your new map of Mahoning County? Airports (complexes) Airport Airports (runways) Circle 3 (40%) Areawater Water(Area) Roads Ramp
Structures (Education) Triangle 1 Structures (Emergency Response) Cross 4 Structures (Health) Accessibility Structures (Industry) Pin Push 1 Structures (Information) Square 6 Structures (Transportation) Campground Structures (Water Supply) Water Treatment Plant Question 1.5: (1 point) Submit your final PDF file to Dr Shellito along with this handout, who will check your work for completeness and accuracy to make sure you get credit for this question.
