Lab 2

I chose Rhode Island, as I assumed the smallest state would only have one state plane. I was correct in this assumption and used the NAD 1983 (2011) version as it was the most up to date.

Lab 1- Design & Typography

  Here is my map. I'm choosing to lose a few points instead of manually identifying and labeling 16 locations just to demonstrate I can use the dropdown options in the element pane. No offense intended, it's just already been a 50+ hour week of GIS for me. I began using the standard blue color for water features, and marked San Francisco in bold lettering as that's the location that contextualizes the map most clearly. If I was going to make this map more effective: I'd use dynamic labeling on the parks to save time and only place one label relevant to the Golden Gate area.
