Individual Professional Development Reflection

After having taken GEOB 270, I can analyze spatial data using ArcGIS and create professional-looking maps that demonstrate the results of the analysis and contain information that can be used to influence decision-making. I gained new computer-based technical skills applicable to geography concepts I’m learning in other courses along with other parts of my life. Being able to make spatial information more accessible by presenting it as a map, and to come up with answers to geographic problems using the skills learned in this course will likely be very valuable in my future and is exciting to me now.
