1 Thinking Like a Geographer Project Part 2: Analyze, Arrange, and Apply Tip  If you did not acquire crime data and land price data return to part one, those directions were recently added to that file. Directions: Step 1 - Click “Slide Show” then “View Show” to view the power point. - All links and files will not work unless you complete step 1. Step 2 – These are your project directions, complete all tasks.

2 Analyze Step 1: Floodplains - Each location and its corresponding floodplain creates a different flooding scenario. Which floodplain creates the worst situation? -Rank the floodplains in order from best to worst based on your analysis. -Explain your ranking for each individual location/floodplain.

3 Analyze Step 2: Flooding and Hurricane Data -Complete the columns that were previously left blank on the Flooding and Hurricane sections of the Acquire section. Fill in the columns with one of the following grades: A – No risk, B – Low risk, C – Medium risk, D – High risk, F – Very High risk. You may assign multiple A’s, B’s, etc. Step 3: Fault Data -What types of problems do you anticipate from the fault data? -Rank the locations in order from worst to best based on your analysis of fault data. -Explain your ranking for each individual location.

4 Analyze Step 4: Crime Data and Land Prices -Explain how crime data will affect the recruitment of future students. -Explain how land prices will affect the recruitment of future students. -Predict how the Board of Directors and investors will respond to both sets of data.

5 Analyze Step 5: Other Sources of Information -Other sources of information would need to be considered to truly complete this project in a real-life scenario. -Identify 3 other sources of information that would assist in this process. -Explain how each source of information would be beneficial. -Predict which location would benefit the most from the results of this data collection and which location would benefit the least. Other sources of information Explanation of how the source would be beneficial Location that would likely benefit the most from your source Location that would likely benefit the least from your source.

Rank the six data sets in order from most influential to least influential. -Explain your ranking for each example. - Floodplains - Watersheds - Fault data and mechanical weathering - Hurricane storm surge and potential damage - Land prices - Crime data

7 Arrange Pick the data set that you feel is most important and arrange it. You may create a graph of any kind, thematic map, Google Earth tour, or see me if you have another idea. Include all necessary labels and ensure that your product is accurate. You must include each of the 5 locations in your product

8 Apply Where did you put it? Go build it for extra credit.
