In this week’s spatial analysis lab, I learned about XY data
and geocoding. I created a map in ArcGIS Pro that displays every school located
in Manatee County, FL. I shared this map with ArcGIS Online, and you can view it with
the link at the top of this blog post!
To create this map, I first had to gather my data online
through state and federal websites. I saved this data into a spreadsheet,
cleaned it up and formatted it, and imported it into my ArcGIS Pro map. At this
point, I was able to start geocoding. I ran the Address Locator tool, and it
quickly matched most of the school addresses I had listed in my data spreadsheet
to the actual property location on the map. A few of the schools had the wrong
address listed or listed a P.O. box instead of a property address. I cross-referenced the missing school locations in Google maps and searched for the school
on the map to add the correct property location.
