Instructions: Create a plan for your final ArcGIS Online Story Map showing your understanding of the many topics we learned in class this semester. This will only be a template for your final project, you do not have to complete your entire final project now. Only the items in BLUE will be required as part of this project plan. However, all other entries should be shown as a blank ‘section’ in your Story Map (use only a stock image or website in your main stage for now). You will not need to fully complete these sections listed in BLACK yet. Your draft Story Map should include at least one section, along with dynamic maps, graphics, charts, or other content, for each of the following: • Title Section – Complete this slide with your project title. It should contain some wording about ‘geo-spatial analysis’, or ‘Where’, or ‘Location’. Your title section should be a creative presentation of photos, graphics, and typefonts. Include your name, the course name, and a date. Total Points for this Section: (20) • Geospatial Question Section– Which questions are you seeking to answer about the location of your spatial features? What is the spatial relationship between your input layers? Use these examples for inspiration: • Is there a geospatial correlation between poverty and crime? • What is the cancer incident rate for all counties within a 25-mile radius of the natural-gas power plant in the US? • Where are the countries most economically affected by Britain leaving the European Union (BREXIT)? You may include more than 1 geospatial question. However, for each one, you’ll need to create a separate map in your final project that shows your attempt to answer each question. Total Points for this Section: (20) • Study Area Section – What is the spatial extent of your study? How big is it? Why did you choose that area? An entry for this section should be included in your side panel but it does NOT have to be completed as part of your project plan. Eventually, you will fill in the details for your final project. • Literature Review (Background Information) – Provide some preliminary data sources (web-based or traditional books or media). This will be just a short list of sources that you could use to provide some background information. You will add more narrative to this section as part of your final project. Total Points for this Section: (20) • Methods and Data Section – You should write a few preliminary (200 words minimum) thoughts about how you intend to create your maps and analysis. This will be a draft and you’ll be able to update this as you complete your final project. You will need to use two or more of these suggested steps which reflect many of the skills you’ve already learned this semester: -Enrich Layer – Combine your state or county data with a separate data source in order to gain key insights about the relationship between the two. Example: Children under Age 14 and poverty at the census block level. – Advanced Symbology – Draw your spatial features with a more complex color scheme, using multiple variables, or using pictograms to represent your point features. Use a better symbology than just the simple defaults. -Georeference an old scanned image – Use ArcMap (as we learned in the Week 4 lab) to georeference an old map and publish your new image as a layer in your advanced map. Most campus computers have ArcMap installed. Also, if you log in to your AGOL account, you can use your own feature layers as your vector control for your georeferencing. – Use sample data – Show a table of sampled data that could be joined to a spatial layer of states or counties, or census tracts. Alternatively, include in your data table column(s) that AGOL can use to physically locate your records (zipcodes, physical addresses, LAT/LON, etc.) Draw the results as a choropleth or with a ‘classified’ symbology based on your sample data. -Use Geospatial Correlation – Perform the steps learned in the Week 6 Lab project to create some correlation results of your own (use the ‘Join’ tool to combine layers into a single table with two fields that can be plotted on a scatter chart). Draw the map, but also include your scatter plot, along with an R-value, and provide a caption about any positive or negative correlation between your independent and dependent variables. – Calculate ‘Areas of Influence’ – Use the Find Existing Locations tool to select features within a distance of a purported source (or ‘influencer’) feature. Aggregate your totals and compare the results from those features that are NOT within your specified distance. Review the Week 8 Lab for details. -Perform a ‘Suitability Analysis’ – Use the ‘Overlay Layers’ tool to produce a Union of two or more source layers. Also, you could use the ‘Buffer’ tool to produce results. Query your output layer(s) for specific criteria by creating a multi-step expression in the ‘Find Existing Locations’ tool. Review the Week 9 Lab for details. – Use the ‘Hot Spot’ tool – Create a new feature layer containing the Getis-Ord Gi* statistic. Compare demographic information for both a hot spot and cold spot. You could also use Google Street View to produce some qualitative observations about your hot and cold spots. Include screenshots of your hot and cold spot areas from Google Street View. – Use the mobile app ‘Collector for ArcGIS’ – Show some data that you’ve collected yourself with your own gpsenabled cell phone or tablet. Show at least 10 features captured, along with some observations and/or quantitative results (Example: “Farmingdale State College has a total of 10.4 acres of sports fields that require regular maintenance throughout the year”).
