Finding GIS data: Land cover and land use in Kansas
Houser, Rhonda
GIS
Spatial data
Lesson
Instruction
Associated datasets are also available in ScholarWorks.
In this GIS investigation, students will learn about ‘real-world GIS’ by working through the process of identifying, accessing, manipulating and using spatial data, at the state and local / county scale. This lesson highlights websites for freely available spatial data, and provides tips on digging for data, and downloading and converting various file types. This lesson will be helpful for anyone using GIS data or beginning a GIS project, and especially for those using data from different sources, and those interested in land use and population analysis.

Mapping your data: Integrating data into a GIS
Houser, Rhonda
GIS
Spatial data
Lesson
Instruction
Associated GIS datasets are also available in ScholarWorks.
In this intermediate-level GIS investigation, students will learn about tools and techniques for integrating data having spatial attributes into a geographic information system (GIS). ArcGIS allows users to visualize data organized by geography or having latitude/longitude coordinates, i.e. originating with a Global Positioning System or in tabular (spreadsheet) format. Mapped data can then be examined geographically and combined with other spatial data. The investigation is also suitable for University-level students and others in that environment with novice or intermediate GIS skills. The lesson uses street, store location, parks, schools, and Census data for small region in Kansas, USA.
