Week6 Georeferencing Repost
I was able to finally get it to work. I updated my second map. In this map I used 27 points to produce a 3rd linear equation map. It was reported an RMS of 18.58516.
As I mentioned inj my first post. The top map uses 10 critical points and has a 1st order equatioon RMS of 15.89071. I beleive that both maps are of good quality with RMS values under 20 as requested.

Week6: Georeferencing
In this lab, we are georeferencing a unknown aerial to a known buildings and roads map. In order to do this, I added ten control points from the known maps to the georeferenced map or unknown map. After adding the ten points, I displayed data as a table in order to see how similar the two maps were in a 1st ordeer polynomial reference frame. In order to make sure the maps line up we are looking at the RMS or Residual Error. For the map to be a good fit, we are looking for a RMS of under 20. I was able to reduce this number through trial and error to 15.89071 on my maps. This seems to be a very good fit by visualization and the fact my RMS is low.
The second map is a raster map of the same general area.I used a third order polynomial reference frame. I had to use 21 different control points for this map. I got a RMS of 17.83217. A good fit for this size data set.
I don't know why the image is black. When I did the assignment it raster image was fine and matched up well. I even tried to reload the data to my map and it looked like this. I could not remedy the problem. Though you can see by the distortion of the map that it has been Georeferenced.

Week5 Map 2
Inb the second map of this assignment. I downloaded and extracted the DRG for Lake Jackson Quad 5335. Then I downloaded and added each of the four quadtants of the South Havana 5336. I found two different version of the information. For the top half I used the Black and White data and on the Southern two I used the color version of the data.
I was not able to convert the DEM for Midway 5236 to the south of South Havana. I did put alot of effort into this assignment and I hope that the time spent is considered.

Week 5 Map 1
This was by far the hardest assignment to date. I had real problems with understanding where to find files that were not corrupt.
This is a map of Gadsden County, Fl. I was able to produce this map with shapefiles downloaded from FGDL website. I then clips the size of each piece of information down to the size of Gadsden County using ArcToolbox.
