Project Proposals
No really, what should I DO?
Simplistic GIS models
… Perhaps it will helpto review what we’vereally been doing!
Statistics – overlays and spatial selection
Bolivia flood area- used for zonal population statistics
Worldwide earthquakes- spatial relationship to plate boundaries
Assumptions vs. ‘Reality’
Flowlines developed off a DEM
Flowlines from theNational Hydrography Dataset
More careful analysis by the USGS:
Tephra
Lahars
Simplified models can give you good information – just make assumptions clear!
Extrapolating information…
We’ve seen how to interpolate point data to information we can use in a 3D scenario
What to email in by next Thursday …
1. I am interested in finding out… (brief paragraph)This is your topic of interest and hypothesis
2. Datasets likely needed (list)
3. How I intend to use the data (a few sentences)Don’t worry if this feels uncertain right now…Your analysis approach will firm up,we’re just looking for a first step idea.
This isn’t graded! We just want to get you on the right track.
