CREATE MAP OF DISASTER TYPE LOCATIONS
3. Bring your dataset into ArcGIS Online and display the ‘Disaster_Type.’ Save your disaster type location map. Give it a descriptive title (don’t just call it Final Project). Use different colours to represent different disaster types.
CREATE MAPS WITH ANALYSES
4. Working off the first map you created, display the ‘Disaster_Type’ data in such a way that only one specific disaster is visible, such as ‘fire.’ You can do this by either arranging the different disaster types in ‘Change Type’ (see image below) or you can perform a query to
identify data points pertaining to a specific situation. Cluster the data using the ‘Cluster Points’ option to determine where more resources or help is needed. Save this as a second map and give it a descriptive title. Information on performing a query can be found here: https://developers.arcgis.com/labs/arcgisonline/query-a-feature-layer/.
5. Open a new map and upload the .csv file twice. Using one of the .csv files, display the ‘Disaster_Type’ data. With the second .csv file, display the ‘Importance’ data and cluster it. Use a ‘Drawing Style’ and adjust the clustering of the ‘Importance’ data so that it is easy to identify which areas on the map have a high and low clustering of ‘Importance’ data. Since you are also displaying the ‘Disaster_Type’ data, the map should also tell you what disaster types are occurring in those areas--you may want to cluster the ‘Disaster_Type’ data to help highlight this. Save this as a third map and give it a descriptive title. This will help you identify the major emergency response locations and what disaster(s) is/are in the area.
6. You should now have three separate maps:
• location of all disaster types
• location and clustering of a specific disaster type
• location and clustering of disasters and their level of importance
