Goal and Background:
For our first lab we took on the task of preparing base maps for a local construction proposal called the Confluence Project in Eau Claire. Along the way we learned various skills such as understanding the Public Land Survey System (PLSS), Zoning, Civil Divisions, Censu Data, and more.
Methods:
I used the data from the City of Eau Claire and EC County to obtain all of the maps in this project and created the proposed site myself by digitizing the parcels included in the project using the same data mentioned above.
Some skills I used in making these maps include: adjusting the color and transpanecy of polygons in order to see through to the base layer satellite image, labeling certain features , and adding and adjusting legends, scales and text on top of the finished maps.
