The first task was to georeferencing a raster image that had no information to a reference which were UWF buildings of the main campus.  This involved matching points on the raster image to the corresponding points on the vector layer. This was the easiest part of the lab.

This lab was on geocoding which took a long time to adjust points for where the EMS stations were. Some of the problems with this were the data was not updated and so you had to make a new point on the map. The last part of the lab was interesting because you used a tool that was basically coding but not actually typing in code. This exercise took place online through the ESRI website which their instructions were hard to follow at times.

This week's lab continued on vector analysis. I used three tools while doing the lab tools are buffer, overlay, and Python. Out of all these tools Python was the most interesting. Using the Python tool person is actually typing code which can be frustrating at first, but once a person remembers the code it is easier to write. The lab was to find a suitable campsite by using all three of these tools. Which is difficult at first, but once a person learns how to use the tools it becomes easier over time.
