GIS 5103 Module 6: Working with Geometries
GIS Programming students in this summer's session of GIS 5103 Module 6 recently tackled Working with Geometries. This important module introduces concepts for using ArcPy to access a feature's geometry object. ArcPy provides a variety of classes which allow scripts to access geometry components such as SHAPE, LENGTH, XY coordinants and more. As part of this lesson, students wrote a Python script that generates a formatted text file otuputting each river feature within a feature class.
This week, we would like to highlight the outstanding work of Maha Habbal! Maha works as a GIS Analyst for the City of Tampa Mobility Department where she collaborates with engineers, planners, AutoCad Technicians. Her expertise is appreciated as she helps fellow students answer their questions and participates regularly in class discussion forums. She is an excellent student and we enjoy her well written blog posts, as well.
