Hi, I have an urgent assignment in GIS.
Please read attachmentI need someone with a strong understanding of GIS – no time wasters please.
EM334/534Introduction to GIS 1
!”##$%&#
())*+,-.,/’0′
Note: E M334 students answer questions 1, 2, 3 and 4 only; while E M534 students answer
all five questions.
Value: (20%) Due Date: 22 March 2013
Rationale:
To demonstrate understanding of key GIS concepts related to data and data
storage
Ability to carry out independent research on error issues in GIS.
Question 1 [4 marks] [Maximum of 200 words]
an important part of most GIS and what problems you are likely to face if you
had to work on a GIS developed by someone else but there was no metadata
attached to it.
Question 2 [4 marks] [Maximum of 300 words]
a polygon in a GIS data base is
Do you agree with this statement? Explain
Question 3 [6 marks] [Maximum of 400 words]
Review the issues involved in selecting a resolution for a raster GIS project.
What resolutions would be appropriate for the following problems: (a)
determining logging areas in a National Forest, (b) finding suitable locations for
backcountry campsites, (c) planning a national highway from Melbourne to
Darwin?
Question 4 [6 marks] [Maximum of 600 words]
Write an essay discussing the raster and vector data models. In your
discussion include issues such as: the strengths and weaknesses of the two
models, the costs of setting up the two data models, common sources of data
for the 2 models, different scenarios in which one model would be preferred
over the other, and why most spatial datasets have data in both formats. Give
examples where possible.
