Special Topics - Project 4 Week 4
The final final. This project ended with the creation of a Power Point slide presentation of the analysis we performed in previous weeks. Creating the presentation was fairly straight-forward until I got to the audio part. I tried several different ways to get the audio to start up automatically but I never was able to accomplish that. After recording the whole presentation three times in different ways I finally gave up. The rest of it was simple enough until I went into QGIS to create a finished map. For analysis week I didn't need a finished map from QGIS, just a map that had had the analysis done and the layers created. It should have been an easy enough task, but every time I made one change in the layout view it would change all kinds of things. I was very careful to switch over to the data window and turn the appropriate groups on or off before unlocking the groups in the layout view, and yet it still would change things in ways I never could figure out. Finally I got the map to the point where I wasn't too embarrassed by it so I did a quick save and export before anything else could happen.
All in all this last project was rather interesting, but I thought it was a bit much for a final project to have so much new stuff thrown at us with very little guidance in using it. Had each of the programs been worked into the previous lessons it wouldn't have been so bad, but at the very end it was rather frustrating.
But it's all over and done now and time to move on.
Here are the links for both my Web map and my Power Point presentation.
