Questions
- Select 5 different places in the linked GIS database that are of interest to members of your group.
- In a shared document within your shared File system, list the place Title, Type, Feature Class, Links, and Modern country bounds, and Temporal Attestations of the place.
- For each place, list one element from your readings for the week that helps you understand this GIS place. For example, the GIS map I’ve linked above uses both spatial and attribute data. Highlighting an example of one of these types of data would be one element.
| Title | Type | Feature Class | Links | Modern Country Bounds | Temporal Attestations | GIS Element |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Hint: to find the temporal attestations, you have to click on the place name.
