Week 4: Spatial Data
In this assignment, data was collected from various sources to create a composite image illustrating Seismic
Hazards in the San Francisco Bay Area. DOQ, DLG, and Tigerfile formats were used in creating maps along with
various overlays provided by the state of California regarding seismic spacial information. The final product
required extensive graphics work in Corel Draw due to the limitations of ArcGIS.
