Projections Part 2 GIS 4043

In projections part 2 we learned the difference between defining a projection and actually re-projecting a projection. I gathered quads from the labin's website and those I had to define the projection because when I looked in the ArcCatalog they had no existing spatial information. When obtaining county boundaries and major roads those files had to be re-projected as they already had a defined projection. My projections came out all in the specified coordinates but end map could have used a little more work.

I was assigned Nassau County and collected a DOQQ (the NE region) a DEM and five vector layers to be used. I chose to re-project layers into the same projection changing the "03" designation of North into "01" East as that was the quadrant I was using. I ran into some problems with some layers showing through and finding land that was not township range in the data base provided but for the lack of time had to submit what I had.

Image Enhancement Module 6 Remote Sensing 4035

Module 6 lab took us the through the use of many different types of filters in order for a user to sharpen or make prominent different features that may be contained in an image. The example below if the sharpened Fourier filter enhancement. It is not as clear as I would like it to have been but this filter is going to take a lot of practice to use effectively.
