Order DescriptionThis order will be very similar to my previous order of #81592211. However, I need the two (2) changes as stated below made to this order.

1. How about mapping the officer deaths in the U.S.? That would be a better project than mapping the crime. (This is the recommended change from the previous order that my professor wanted.)

2. All you really have to do is demonstrate that you can find and map data, explain what you did, and show where the data came from (metadata!!)

This GIS uses the EsriAccounts/ArcGIS software package.

Here are the previous instructions from order #81592211. Any questions, feel free to drop me a line. Thanks. David (William) here in Texas.

Below is the instructions from my professor. Please pay close attention to the minimum standards, 1-6. This project uses the Esri Accounts-ArcGIS for Desktop software package. Task: create your own GIS project. Subject: you may choose any topic that relates to Homeland Security or Criminal Justice. This includes anything from a terrorist event (such as the event described in lesson 4 in the textbook) or planning a recovery after a flood or dam breech, to the mapping of crime in your county. The subject matter is entirely up to you. Minimum standards: You should turn in your final project as a Word Document or a PDF document. It must be in a single document. It can be of any length so long as you include the following specific information: the location studied, the purpose and intent of your study, the reason you chose to do this study, the images you generate in ArcGIS, a list of any “special tools” and/or “extensions” that you employed to produce the outcome, and your MetaData. The purpose of including the MetaData is that it shows the original source of your data – in other words, it precludes plagiarism (not that any of you would do something like that). Additional Sources of Information: If you do have access to both Hazus-MH software and data then please feel free to make use of them as an available resource. For those of you without ready access to either the software or data sets associated with Hazus, you might find the following links appropriate in gathering data for your project. TIGER Data ( https://www.esri.com/data/free-data) provides access to multiple TIGER Data files, including roads, rivers, multiple types of boundaries, and some demographic information as well. National Atlas (https://nationalatlas.gov/) provides access to multiple types of data at varying amounts of detail for the entire United States. National Map (https://nationalmap.gov/) provides access to a variety of environmental data. Stanford University Library (https://lib.stanford.edu/gis) provides hundreds of links to national, state, and local websites that make available GIS data or GIS-related information. Warning – it took a long time for this site to initially load, so be patient. And don’t forget – the entire data set for your textbook is also available. Summary That pretty much sums up how to use ArcGIS and the potential benefits you can get from the software. Next week I’ll give you some of the more esoteric uses that are out there so that you can see what else people are doing with the concept of visually displaying digital data. Additionally, next week you will have the opportunity to complete the IDEA survey on the class and on me as the instructor. I cannot emphasize enough how important your comments will be.less
