Geocoding

In this week's lab, we learned the technique of geocoding to create a map showing the different school types in Brevard County, Florida. The technique of geocoding uses addresses and converts them to spatial data that can be set into geographic coordinates. Using this technique gives coordinates to any address or location. In the map above, the school addresses have been geocoded and are represented as individual dots on the map. Each color represents a different school type (University, community college, etc.) in Brevard County. The map in the bottom right depicts Brevard County in the state of Florida. The link attached below takes you to the ArcGIS Online page that allows you to see this map in greater detail. Overall, I enjoyed making this map and I hope to make more of these in the near future.
