For this module we went over the basic principles of maps. This included the elements like theme, titles, design etc. and in the lab we chose a good example and a bad one in order to test our understanding of the principles we learned. Below is my bad and good example respectfully and you can see son stark differences like the how the bad map is really disorganized and has map elements all over the place with no real plan while the good map has its elements neatly organized and they are clearly visible.
Hello my name is James Barnes but I go by my middle name. Brian. I am 27 years old and I work full time for the Air Force and I am a graduate student trying to get my masters in GIS. I have academic and professional experience with GIS since I studied it during my undergraduate degree and I worked as a GIS Technician at Gulf Power. Additionally during my free time I worked on several GIS certifications to expand my knowledge and skills. I think the goals from this course would be to start networking with fellow students and also improve my GIS knowledge and experience. I joined this program in order to become more proficient in GIS and explore the possible career opportunities in this field. Some adjectives that describe me are loyal, kind, and curious.
