INTRO GIS4043 - Lab 10 Vector Analysis

"Vector - A coordinate-based data model that represents geographic features as points, lines, and polygons."
-ESRI

For the last two weeks we have been analyzing and working with vectors and an array of tools and processes for interacting with them in ArcMap. Week 9 had us identifying geodatabases and creating feature class shapefiles, running attribute queries, using the statistic tool in the attribute table, and executing a spatial join to merge attribute table data from two layers into one. Week 10 continued with the theme of vector data manipulation by having us utilize buffer and overlay, identifying the six overlay tools, used to manipulate two features to form a new one,  form a singlepart layer from a multipart, and create a map incorporating all skills learned over the two weeks.

My map is titled Potential Campsite Locations and is made up of multiple layers overlayed with certain attribute data selected for to create the parameters notated on the map below.
