This document outlines a systematic GIS process used for project management and data analysis, with a focus on lakes data in geographic WGS84 and UTM_13North_WGS84. The steps include defining the task, finding and gathering data from the internet, uncompressing files, addressing missing projections, and projecting data into desired formats using ArcMap and Toolbox. It also covers data assembly, analysis, map creation, and effective data management practices. The processes hinge on the use of ArcMap, ArcCatalog, and ArcToolbox for efficient GIS operations.

Overall GIS Process • Define task • Find data: Internet, etc. • Gather data: Internet download • Uncompress files: File manager: Zip • Define missing projections: ToolBox • Project to desired projection: ToolBox • Assemble data: ArcMap • Analysis: ArcMap • Make the maps(s): ArcMap, PowerPoint?
Data Management • ArcCatalog • Move files • Read Metadata • ArcMap • Make maps • ArcToolBox • Define projections • Project data to new projections
Organization • Project Name • Original • Geographic_WGS84 • Lakes • Lakes.shp, Lakes.dbf, Lakes.shx, Lakes.xml, etc. • UTM_13North_WGS84 • Map1
