I think I need GIS

Mimic Data Carpentry with local campus data

Flush out what we want the end product to look like

Annotation vs geospatial data

Features have attributes - a data table - columns have fixed data types (a lot of them) - for example bikes

Types of data:

Vector: Difference between point, line, and polygon
Raster: an array of values that can be used
- Single band
- Multibands

Projections? Reprojection (raster, polygons)

Import point data from a csv
Zonal statistics (simple)

Add raster with another projection

NCOS? Bird observations (might becsv)
Topographic map to compute solar panels location (maybe workshop 3?)
Facilities data (buildings)
DEM
Bike paths
Trees

Potential simple analysis as end product

Zonal statistics
Count number of points within a polygon
Heatmap from points
Buffering

Exporting data from GIS

Shapefile
geodatabase

What tool?

ArcGIS online
ArcGIS pro
QGIS
