The goal in this lab project was to show that I have an understanding of different coordinate systems, both projected and geographic, and that I know how to apply them to data sets that either had a problem with their systems or no system at all. The purpose of the lab was to teach me how to identify and solve issues regarding the projection of data so that it can be used in a GIS program. The methods I used in this lab include building multiple data frames to display feature data, creating shapefiles and projecting them, working with multiple data sets with different projections, and creating two final maps. The first map resulted in an example of several different projections to compare side-by-side, and the second map is a data set (rivers) laid on top of a shapefile of several counties in central Wisconsin.
