Assignment 5

 

Topic : Importing and Managing Data

 

 

 

For this assignment, I had to download the huc13, strm13 and 13res data from cegis account, use the conversion tool to import from Interchange File, and add data to a new empty map. I played with the symbology.

 

 

 

I used the Query Builder to highlight the headwaters of the Rio Pecos and created a shapefile. I added HUC 13060002 to include the watershade above Ft. Sumner Lake.

 

 

 

 

 

I had difficulty adding the stream gage data from USGS website. It was nice of Austin to help me figure out the coordinate system of the imported data and declare it while displaying the XY Data. I used the Data Management Tools to project from NAD 83 geographic coordinates to an Albers projection.
