Each person in the class was assigned a County my County was Alachua. The first map I used data from the Florida Geographic Data Library (FGDL) this is where I obtained water basin data which I used for the environmental element. There is a lot of other data a person can activate on this specific map.
The second map I used a combination of FGDL and Labins for my data. I had to use both the clipping tools to get rid of the roads outside the quad photos. I also decided to incorporate history of Gainesville because of the battle that took place there.
The third map I used a combination of FGDL, Labins, and UWF. This map is the most complicated because I had to use three legends to provide information on what was going on in each map on a single page. The first one was on surface water then second one was on population and Interstate 75 and the last one was parks.

This is not my cup of tea changing projection back and fourth. Just use an universal projection system. This would make it easier on every one and would save time in the long run.
