11/1/17 Update


Blog Post 3 - Update


This week, I ran into some trouble with my hurricane data. I found it is really hard to decipher all of the attribute data, to correct this problem, I will look for the metadata to figure out what it all means. I have started to breakdown the data by month, and I have also started looking for new hurricane data in case I can't find the metadata I need.

Right now the temperature layer of this project has taken a back seat, since its been difficult to find a suitable layer, but I will continue to look for the right data.

So far no questions, but I'll post them if I have any!

  1. Katie,

    I have also been having some trouble trying to go through all of my data so I understand your frustration. I think finding the metadata is a good start that will allow you to better understand what you are looking at and how to use that data to make an effective map that corresponds with your project objectives.

  2. I'm not sure what organizations would do this, but you could try looking at non profits to get some kind of temperature data.
