Today we covered Geodesy, Datums, Map Projections and Coordinate Systems. Another class with a lot to soak up. Pete helped to explain this a lot but it still seams that things could and should be standardized more. This class has helped me realize the huge amount of manpower and time that very intelligent people take to run and update GIS systems. I really don't know if I will ever be able to make the time to do what I need to do with the Town of Mars Hill's GIS mapping but I'll have a lot better understanding of what I can and what I should rely on an GIS professional to help me with. In lab we completed chapter 13 which was also very helpful in understanding projecting data in ArcMap. I have included some final maps in this post .
