Intro to GIS (2022/2023) 100% Solved 3 parts of Geospatial Technology GPS, GIS, and Remote Sensing Definition of GIS a computerized database management system for capture, storage, retrieval, manipulation, analysis, and display of spatial data. what makes data spatial data is spatial once it is given a place on a map. 4 types of distortion in Map Projections Area, Shape, Distance, and Direction What is GCS? spherical coordinate system of degrees of latitude and longitude that is used to locate features on the Earth's surface. Difference between Unprojected and Projected data unprojected data is data spatially referenced using lat/lons laid on a sphere. Projected data has been taken off of the globe/sphere and put on a flat piece of paper. Difference between Defining Projection and using a Projection Tool to re-project The Project Tool acts on the x-y coordinates of a layer and converts them to a different coordinate system. The Define Projection tool only changes the coordinate system label of the feature class. 3 types of commonly used Coordinate systems, and label examples. State Plane, UTM, and Lambert Conformal Conic Difference between UTM and State Plane- label examples. UTM- world divided in 60 zones at 6 degrees each State Plane- for the US only, states divided into one or more zones and ID'd by a unique FIP number. list at least 2 common Datum NAD1983, NAD1927 How would you fix a file with an undefined projection? Using the Project tool, convert the x-y coordinate values in a feature class to a different coordinate system. How do you change a file from a GCS to a projection? use the project tool
