Within this lab, a yearly hot spot map of heart disease in the Southern United States was created with the data (ranging from 1999 – 2005) provided by CDC Wonder Data as well as Model Building in ArcGIS. First a model was created to process the data into individual feature classes, which was then followed by a second model to perform a hot spot analysis on each year’s feature class. Lastly, the yearly hot spot feature class maps was also animated. The main focus of this lab was to review how to properly create a map using adequate map formatting and elements.
