Lab 10 (SB Assignment)


The lab went quite well up until I tried to import some road and water shapefiles from Tiger Census information. The layers wouldn't align with the parcel data even after reprojecting them to match projection/coorindate systems with the parcel data. I'm not sure why this kept happening, so I left those layers out of the map. Besides the projection issues (if thats what it was), everything went smoothly.

  1. Hey Carey,

    TIGER data is really not the best data to use for correct placement. It tends to be off by a good margin in most places. For Florida, try using the NHPN_2007 file from FGDL. It works the best for me.
