ITLS6111: Spatial Analytics Weight: 25%
This individual assignment aims to assess your ability to (a) perform spatial analyses and (b) comminute your analysis results through effective map designs and data visualisation. The assignment requires you to design three maps under the same ArcGIS Pro project. The requirements and their weights/points for each map are described below. Your submission is in the form of PDF file (could be converted from power point slides .ppt or pptx file) and ArcGIS Pro project (.aprx file). Requirement for the ArcGIS Pro project file (.aprx) submission This file is used to cross-check your work, particularly your set-up. You will need this file to export the three maps required below. While no mark is allocated to this part, you should set up the project, maps, layouts, dashboards, etc. in a way that others can use them without any difficulty (this is very important for group project at the end of the semester). The PDF file is then simply an “export” of your set up for sharing (e.g., export layout to pdf). You can find this function on page 49 of the Workshop1 slides. Requirement for the slide submission (.pdf file) This is used for marking your work. Each slide includes one map. The submitted file should have exactly 4 pages in total, including one cover page that has your student ID (don’t include your name to allow anonymous marking) and the name of this unit (ITLS6111). You are free to design the slides as you so wish but the focus should be on the maps/visualisations you show, instead of the slides themselves. Each map should have a clear and succinct title that describes the message you want your maps to convey. The title can be a part of your map (i.e., added using ArcGIS Pro insert Straight text), but you can add the title separately using text on the power point slide. Each map should be exported to an image file (such as .JPEG or .PNG, .PDF) for inclusion on the slide/pdf file.
Map 1 (7 points): Create a map of the neighbourhood around your home. This map should cover an area of about 1.5 x 2.5 kilometres. The map should clearly identify your house, local and main streets, nearby bus stops, train lines/stations (if any) and all the major features such as supermarkets, shopping centres, churches, etc. that you can find from the SYD_CulturalFeatures in the SydneyInfrastructure.gdb or elsewhere (e.g., Living Atlas, ArcGIS online, Open Street Map). You should be selective of what ‘cultural features’ to include or exclude. [Tips: put yourself into the position of a tourist who first visits your neighbourhood to design a map that has the information that the tourist may care about] (3 points)
Label important features of your map as appropriate. Add symbols to your map to make it easier for the users: a symbol for your house, supermarkets, a north arrow, scale, legend, and map title. Again, you should be selective of what symbols/styles to use (or not to use). (2 points)
