Mapping Project Information
NRE 355 Students visited the Pilot Knob State Nature Preserve on September 21, 2016 and used mobile devices to collect GPS data of an overlook trail. The students mapped about 3.2 miles of trail and used ArcGIS to create a 2D map and 3D visualization of the nature preserve, and CARTO maps to create interactive visualizations.
