For my final project I decided to do a map on the local wetlands, lakes, and rivers of Bibb County. I also wanted to see how the land is being used in these specific areas. The map consists of an aerial image of Bibb County and shape-files of the bodies of water. There are also shape-files of a handful of landmarks that are around and on these bodies of water. The wetlands are divided into four section (East, Northeast, West, and Northwest). There are also a number of lakes and rivers that flow through Bibb County. For the most part, the land around the wetlands and rivers and lakes are of the Ocmulgee National Park and the Middle Georgia Regional Center. Highways and roads are also built above the rivers and the wetlands tend to have parks associated near them. Methodologically speaking, my project shows that I know how to incorprate different shape-files on an aerial imago, the aerial map of bibb county had background issues and i had to fix the raster to take the background off, and I had to organize a clear color scheme to separate the different areas the wetlands lie in. I also incorporated a compass, legend, and a scale.
