ArcGIS: the beginning

Lauren and I working on GIS mapping

After our GIS tutorial with Prof. Mathisen, we began working with ArcGIS to look at the information available in MASS GIS. We started by importing the maps and then looking at the diverse information fields that these GIS maps have. We also clipped out all the other towns' information that we don't need. We are still trying to decide which fields are especially relevant to our project. In the picture you can see a map of the city of Chelsea. Learning to use ArcGIS was a little challenging but a lot of fun! ArcGIS is a very powerful program, and I enjoy using it.
