Project 3: Better Books Stores Analysis


This is my second map map for analysis. It shows the competitor stores and the 3 key properties which are being considered for a third Better Book Store.

This is the first map for analysis. It shows the two market areas shapes. The first is based on driving distance the second is based on percentage of book club members.

Project 3: Prepare

This is the second required map. It shows the 1 mile buffers of the 2 Better Book Stores in San Fransisco. I also added the required calculations from an excel spreadsheet to the map. These were based on the % of people having some college.

This is my first map of the 4 demographics in question. It shows the location of the 2 Better Books Stores and the location and annual income of competitors stores in the area. I have compared these locations with the Total Net Worth, Average Household Income, % of population with some college education, and Total numbers of households wihtin the areas.

Project Summary

This is a map showing Carbon Storage Capacity in Tons for each of the neighborhoods. It also shows Carbon Sequestration Rates in Tons/Yr for each of the 5 neighborhoods. I used multiple ttechniques to produce this map. I used the append tool to combine the 5 neighborhoods. Then I added fields to the atrributes table for carbon capacity and carbon sequestration. I had to add the values to the atrrributes table using the Editor tool for that layer and saved my edits. I was then able to symbolize to show the neighborhoods in red and orange with low numbers in both storage capacity and sequestration rates. This is a good indicator of which neighborhoods we will have to concentrate on for planting of new trees.

This is a map of tree coverage percent for the 5 major neighborhoods of Marin City, California. I have reclassified the coverage for the entie city. Then used the Extract by Mask tool to isolate each of the 5 neighborhoods land cover types. Through calculation using the field calculator, percentages of total acreage were calculated for each neighborhood. I also added a graph to show the percentages from excel.
This is my improved basemap of the reclassified images provided from the repository drive. I felt the need to repost this becasue I was not happy with my original basemap. I worked with layout designs in order to create this new base map.
