Vector Part 2

For week 10, we were asked to utilize several features from the Arctoolbox, such as the overlay and buffer tools. We also dabbled with Arcpy, or Python, which is a coding tool that allows you to use and tool more than once at a time. So when we wanted to make multiple buffer zones, I was able to make them at the same time. The biggest skill I learned was how to include and exclude certain features on my map, using some of the overlay operations. Also, I became familiar with how to manipulate attribute tables, which can be very useful.

In the end, I created a map displaying available campsite locations according to several parameters including not being within any conservation areas.
