Are you ready to explore the world of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and learn how to transform and visualize data? Join us in this beginner-friendly guided project where working with urban parks data and master the essential function of table joins in GIS.
In this project, you will embark on a journey to understand, analyze, and visualize geospatial information effectively. The project is inspired by the scenario of the imaginary nonprofit, A Greener Town Today, and its initiative to promote urban green spaces. You will become proficient in navigating databases, importing geospatial data, and performing table joins to combine different datasets. Through the project, you will also learn to change map symbology and create user-friendly visuals for stakeholders.
This project is designed for GIS beginners eager to learn how to transform data and visualize it through the essential function of table joins. To successfully complete this project, you will need a fully-configured ArcGIS account and some basic understanding of GIS, such as examples of uses and industry applications. Whether you are a student, a professional in urban planning, or simply passionate about environmental advocacy, this guided project will equip you with practical skills and knowledge to make a meaningful geospatial impact.
Join us on this journey to unlock GIS's potential and contribute to creating a greener, more sustainable urban environment. Let's explore the power of green spaces together!
