The objective of this lab was to depict the variability of acreage calculations when implementing different geographic projections. This was a very time consuming lab albeit rewarding.
The lab demonstrated how to make changes to datasets in ArcGIS. The three map projections were generated using the ArcGIS ArcToolbox, Projections and Transformations toolset, specifically the Project Tool to create new datasets from the original Albers projection. Microsoft Excel was used to create the Legend. I appreciated how products from other vendors (i.e. Microsoft) could be added to enhance the value of the GIS product.
Good work Andy. Try to reserve blue for water.
