This week we explored projection systems. The following is the process summary in order to create a map with three different projection types.
Process Summary:
1)Open cntbnd.ship
2)Add two new data frames by clicking insert, Add data frame
3)Adjust/re-project cntbnd.shp to State Plane and UTM, then change label to match projection type
4)Calculate geometry area for each county, display in miles (Escambia, Alachua, Miami-Dade, and Polk). Notice surface areas have different outcomes based on their projection type
5)Add scale, text, title, projection info, name, date, and data source
6)Export map and upload to blogger
