Week 6

Because this past week was our Spring Break, no much was accomplished. My next steps are to make the base map either terrain or aerial, depending on which is available/of a better quality, and to collect all of the GPS points that are needed to start mapping trails and significant landmarks.

Week 4

For the past two weeks I have been working on the base map and some labeling for the first phase of this project. Fully and partially completing some objectives I have:

-Mapped the property (highlighted in green)

-Shown aerial imaging of the site

-Mapped current DEC wetlands and stream data

-Labeled the public entrance, roads, Elks Club property, ballfields, pavillion, bathrooms, parking lots, and other known features visible from the satellite imagery.

My next task is to collect the GPS coordinates on site so I can start incorporating trails, vegetation, and other features into the map.
