Honest assessment for this lab.
Life, end of semester, and other factors have forced me to complete this lab a week late. It is what it is and I take full responsibility. All in all the georeferencing and use of ArcScene was pretty easy to get a grasp of. Sometimes getting the right links to transform your images can be tedious, but it isnt hard. It's actually pretty neat how you can get a polygon layer to line up to the raster using this tool. As you will see in my first map, everything turned out great (or so I think). However my frustrations and lack of available time to redo pretty much the georeferencing of the south raster has driven me mad. Here is what happened. I completed my first map. Saved my working file and created a final file as well and then closed ArcMap. I opened up ArcScene and added the necessary files to the layer. However my south campus raster was nowhere to be found. It lost my transformation data. I opened ArcMap back up and sure enough, the south map information was lost. Due to my time crunch, I then just took the snapshot from ArcScene and you will see how that at least turned out. Again, I take responsibility for it, but sometimes redoing the entire project isnt worth the frustrations it causes. So, enough ranting, here are my maps for the week:
