STUDENT SPOTLIGHT AWARDS
The following student was chosen for their exception work on the Network Analyst Report Week assignment:
Scott Crosby
What we like: Scott followed all of the deliverable directions to the T. His basemap was simple yet contained all of the data one would need to fully asses the study area at a glance, including an inset map for geographic reference, a detailed title, and a layer displaying the various cover types in the area. His visibility map also displayed excellence in that he included and easy to interpret chart and text explaining his results. Way to go, Scott!
Have a Happy Thanksgiving and keep an eye out for our next spotlight!
