Progress over the past week
I have finished my project proposal and have begun to search for the data layers I am going to use. I do not yet have a draft map to present.
Plans for the upcoming week
This week, I plan on finishing gathering the correct layers and deciding on the extent of my study area. I need to find the Open-space, Wetlands, Woodlands, Roads, Railways, and Parking lots layers that I have available to me and for those that I can't get myself, I need to ask the Professor or my client. I hope to have a draft map by the end of the week in order to stay on pace with the work plan I mapped out in my proposal.
Questions
In looking through all of the available data, I have found myself wondering if I need more than I originally thought. Should I include more detail, like waterways for example?
Sounds like you are ready to make some good progress. I suggest stopping by to see the GIS student workers during their office hours. They'll be able to help you obtain the data layers you want.
