Esri Tutorial 3

In this certification, I walk through ARC GIS Earth. Unlike Certification 1 and 2, no certificate is provided therefore I have to provide screenshots to prove I completed the tutorial.

Change the Basemap

For this task, I had to switch the word map to the National Geographic Setting Shown in Figure 3

Add Data from Living Atlas

Aside from map data, more data can be added to make it appear "living" as shown in Figure 4.

Add Data From Files 

In Figure 5, is the result of adding data from a shape file which show an underwater aquifer.

Add Data From URL

My last task was to show how I can get live data such as traffic depicted on ArcGis. Although the tutorial wanted me to do Connecticuti, I did St. Louis (shown in Figure 6) instead because I experience a lot of traffic there, and wanted to see if any of the areas aligned with my experiences.

Viewing the World With Landsat Imagery 
In Figure 6 is a Sundarbans mode satellite option depicting a river system and forests.

To help determine whether or not the colors are from forest color, I had to use a color infrared option shown in Figure 7.While the identity of features in Natural Color imagery can be unclear, using the appropriate spectral band combination can remove the confusion and make for more accurate observations.

Find an Oasis in the Taklmakan Desert

In Figure 8, this was easily achieved with the Moisture Index Tool

Finding Agriculture in Moisture Rich Areas

Likewise, the Agriculture Band Combination Tool can help find areas suitable for agriculture shown in Figure 9

Viewing Submerged Islands 

Shown in Figure 10, the tutorial demonstrates how you can see several submerged islands such as the ones off the coast of Male.

Track Development of the Suez Canal 

Using the timeline tool, notice the difference between Figure 11 and Figure 12.

Creating my own Spectral View
Shown in Figure 13 is my own spectral view which helps identify pollution based off of different categorizations.
