Working with Attribute Data in ArcGIS Pro

 The ability to conceptualize and query data on a large scale is made possible with the multitude of tools ArcGis Pro has available. The data below is an assortment of Airmen rating certifications held within the continental United States. It should be noted that before any analysis is done, one must make sure that join fields are being shared amongst datasets and that a uniform and correct projection is being used to accurately represent different data points.




The map above gives us a base level representation of all the held ratings of airmen in the U.S. As you can see, the map is extremely noisy and quite overwhelming. Querying out data based on attributes can help one pick and choose what they want to show on the map.


Above is all airmen in the continental U.S. holding a type P (pilot) rating, of course there are a lot of licensed pilots in the U.S., so the map is still a bit crowded. Below is a map with multiple attributes queried out. Licensed pilots who also have a commercial licenses.


The next map underneath is all Part 107 unmanned aviation pilots. Along with all Part 107 certified Indiana residents.

Defining More Features and Buffers

Image
 Features can also be defined measured with other forms of tools and highlighted with buffers. The pairwise buffer tool is helpful in creating zoning areas that can be visually appreciated. Below is a map that has highlighted roads of a flight area at Purdue Wildlife Area. The roads were manually configured using the draw polygon tool. That way, all roads can be accounted for with no error. The roads are still grass features, so the classification wizard querying did earlier would not be accurate, whereas the map above is. Now, I added a 20m buffer from all roads highlighted on the map. This gives you a visualization of the land that is further than 20 meters from all roads. Due, to the road grid pattern being tight, the amount of land is quite small. The buffer feature can also be used for other features. As seen below, I have put a buffer around mostly trees, but in total, all objects that exceed 10 meters in height. Another form of analysis can be found when the same buffers abo...

Pix4D Processing and Map Making with Ground Control Points

Image
 The usage of ground control points (GCPs) can be extremely useful when processing data and creating orthomosaic images of an area flown for data analysis. Below I have two instances of processing using GCPs, both of the Purdue Wildlife Area (PWA), and both used for independent and various analyses.  Once in Pix4D, the GCP data collected is set into a file location, and on a spreadsheet, the various figures collected from the GCP during the flight are brought and inserted into Pix4D to begin processing. Initial processing then is selected and let run completely. Make sure correct projection and GCP locations are used before processing is started. Processing varies in time length, but after completion a post processing evaluation should be done.  Next initial processing should be unselected and the next two steps should be run, that being point cloud mesh and lastly the creation of a DSM and orthomosaic model. Once processing is done, locate each GCP location and make sure...
