Well, our first test was Monday and it was relatively painless. Thanks, Pete, for giving us the "Learning Objecives" and "Terms to Know" with each module. For me, the hard part of this class is keeping up with this damn web log.
Wednesday, we began module four. Pete went through his slides of examples of digital data; essentially a list of prominent sources of information we can use in GIS. I then requested the SSURGO data for the continental US from the Soil Data Mart. I feel kind of bad about it now. I thoght it would just be an electronic request but I was 75th in line on Wednesday and four days later I have not received my data. There must be a room full of monkies working tirelessly to generate these data sets.
There is a long list of downloadable GIS data for North Carolina at the NC OneMAP site. On to chapter 19....
