  1. GIS Tutorial 1 Lecture 5 Importing spatial and attribute data

  2. Outline • Map projections • Coordinate systems • GIS data sources • Vector data formats • Raster data formats GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook

  3. Lecture 5 Map projections GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook

  4. Latitude and longitude GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook Longitude (meridians)

  5. Latitude and longitude GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook Latitude (parallels)

  6. Latitude and longitude • Longitude (prime meridian) 0 • Latitude (equator) 0 GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook

  7. Latitude and longitude Pittsburgh, PA USA 40 -80 GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook Coordinates

  8. Lat/Long coordinates GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook • Degrees, minutes, and seconds (DMS): • 40° 26′ 2″ N latitude • -80° 0′ 58″ W longitude • Decimal degrees (DD) • 1 degree = 60 minutes, • 1 minute = 60 seconds • 40° 26′ 2″ = • 40 + 26/60 + 2/3600 = • 40 + .43333 + .00055 = • 40.434°

  9. Lat/long coordinates GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook Translated to distance • World circumference through the poles is 24,859.82 miles, so for latitude: • 1° = 24,859.82 / 360 = 69.1 miles • 1′ = 24,859.82 / (360 * 60) = 1.15 miles • 1″ = 24,859.82 * 5,280 / (360 * 3,600) = 101 feet • Length of the equator is 24,901.55 miles

  10. Mercator projection (1569) GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook • Conformal projection • Cylindrical • Parallels and meridians at right angles • Linear scale is constant in all directions around any point • Preserves angles and shapes of small objects • Distorts the size and shape of large objects • Map projection for nautical purposes

  11. Hammer – Aitoff (1882-1889) GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook • Equal-area • Modified azimuthal projection • Good for population density (world area) • Difficult to see some areas

  12. Robinson projection (1961) GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook • Pseudocylindrical • Neither equal area nor conformal • Meridians curve gently, avoiding extremes • Good compromise projection for viewing entire world • Used by Rand McNally since the 1960s and by the National Geographic Society (1988 and 1998)

  13. Albers Equal Area GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook • Conic projection • Scale and shape are not preserved, distortion is minimal between the standard parallels • Standard projection for British Columbia, U.S. Geological Survey, U.S. Census Bureau

  14. Projection important • Measurements used to make important decisions • Comparing shapes, areas, distances, or directions of map features • Feature and image themes are aligned New York New York Los Angeles Los Angeles Projection: MercatorDistance: 3,124.67 miles Projection: Albers equal areaDistance: 2,455.03 miles Actual distance: 2,451 miles GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook

  15. Projection not important • Business applications • Not of critical importance • Concerned with the relative location of different features • On large scale maps—street maps • Distortion may be negligible • Map covers only a small part of the earth’s surface GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook

  16. Lecture 5 Coordinate systems GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook

  17. Geographic Coordinate System (GCS) GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook • Spherical coordinates • Angles of rotation of a radius anchored at earth’s center • Latitude and longitude • Census Bureau TIGER files

  18. U.S. Census GCS example GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook

  19. Rectangular coordinate system GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook • Used for locating an intersection on a flat sheet of graph paper or a flat map • Cartesian coordinates (x,y) • State plane and UTM

  20. State Plane coordinates GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook • Established by the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey in 1930s • Originally North American Datum (NAD 1927) • More recently NAD 1983 and 1983 HARN • Used by local U.S. governments • All positive coordinates in feet (or meters)

  21. State Plane zones GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook • 125 zones • At least one for each state • Cannot have zones joined to make larger regions • Follow state and county boundaries • Each has its own projection: • Lambert conformal projection for zones with east-west extent • Transverse Mercator projection for zones with north-south extent

  22. State Plane zones GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook

  23. State Plane zones GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook

  24. Pittsburgh neighborhoods as state plane coordinates GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook

  25. Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook • Rectangular coordinate system • Used by U.S. military • Covers entire world • Metric coordinates • Longitude zones are 6° wide • Latitude zones are 8° high

  26. Coordinate system summary GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook • Geographic coordinate system • U.S. Census • State plane coordinate system • Local governments • U.S. military • Projections defined in ArcCatalog or ArcMap (.prj) files • First file added in a map document sets the projection (others will adjust to it as long as they have a .prj file)

  27. Lecture 5 GIS Data sources GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook

  28. GIS data sources GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook • ESRI • U.S. Census • USGS and other government sources • GDT Dynamap/2000 U.S. Street Data • Engineering companies • land surveys, aerial photos, CAD drawings • University Web sites (e.g. Penn State’s PASDA) • Others?

  29. GIS data sources GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook • 30+ million Internet search results • type “GIS data download” or “population China .e00 • add the name of the state, county, or city to the search

  30. GIS departments Web sites • Washington, D.C. • dcgis.dc.gov/  • Chicago, IL • www.cityofchicago.org/gis • Austin, TX • Tip: Search by county name (Travis County, Texas) • http://www.ci.austin.tx.us/development/ • ftp://ftp.ci.austin.tx.us/GIS-Data/Regional/coa_gis.html GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook

  32. U.S. Census Bureau GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook • Started building a map infrastructure in the late 1970s and early 1980s • Census mapping needs were twofold: • To assign census employees to areas of responsibility, covering the entire country and its possessions • To report and display census tabulations by area, officials determined that the smallest area needed for these purposes is a city block or its equivalent

  33. U.S. Census Bureau GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook • Compiles all line features used to create a block layer for the entire country • Map features smaller than are the responsibility of local governments • deeded land parcels • buildings • street curbs • parking lots • others?

  34. Census TIGER/Line files GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook • Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing files • Census Bureau’s product for digital mapping of the U.S. • Available for the entire U.S. and its possessions • Include the following geographic features • roads and street centerlines • railroads • rivers • lakes • census statistical boundaries

  35. TIGER census tracts GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook • Statistical boundary (below county level) • between 1,000 and 8,000 people (in general) • 1,700 housing units or 4,000 people • homogeneous population characteristics (economic status and living conditions) • normally follow visible features • may follow governmental unit boundaries and other nonvisible features • more than 60,000 census tracts in Census 2000
