Week 10: Homeland Security




Here are the first two maps showing critical infrastructure and secure ingress and egress routes. I could not get the line of sight to work for the other two deliverables as of yet but will keep trying.

Law Enforcement: Deliverables

Map 4 inlcuded several pitfalls during its production. One was deciding the layout itself and where to put the graph showing times and counts of crimes in D.C. The other problem was using the swipe tool. I tried to use it on the first density map and it did not work so I tried it again on this map and it worked. Nothing but the layer I was using was different.


Map 1 is the base map of Washington D.C. showing police stations, streets, and crimes. This map was not very difficult to produce therefore no pitfalls were endured.

The hardest part was deciding which major roads were going to be shown and how to label them properly.
I was unable to geocode the juvenile crimes CSV file no matter what I did therefore the grad extention was not completed. I noticed on the discussion board a few people had the same problem but must have fixed it because I could not.
