In this lab, we were given the role to analyse the environmental impacts of a proposed zone within Garibaldi Mountain. By creating a zone above 600m vertical, and using environmental data layers (OGMA, UWR, Rivers). We created visuals of the environmental areas that must be protected within the project's borders.
In this lab, we were given a scenario in which we took on the role of a GIS analyst in Metro Vancouver and looked at areas susceptible to flooding. We presented this potential scenario through ArcGIS, by creating multiple visual maps to show areas of Metro Vancouver which are up to 8m above sea levels.
