Lakota Studies 400/600:  Special Topics:  Introduction to Geographic Information Systems and Science

Unit 8 Assignment

This week, the assignment is to do the following 2 things:

1)  Lab Exercise   - visit the link for Lab 8.  This lab involves the download and use of topographic and aerial photo data for a  portion of the Rosebud Sioux lands.  You will also be able to digitize new features on top of the photo--buildings--and create and populate a table of attributes associated with the buildings. 

To complete the lab, highlight the whole web page with your cursor, and copy it to WordPad or your favorite word processor.  Paste the text there.  Fill in your answers, and email me the whole document when complete.  Follow this procedure with each lab.

2)  Write your fifth and final bibliography of your 5 annotated bibliographies.   Keep thinking about your final project, and focus the bibliographies on your field of interest.  See Week 3 pages for sources for the articles.
