July 21

.

Our Lesson 1 lab for Maps had us at ArcGIS.com, exploring ArcGis and what it can do -- layers, measuring capability, etc, etc.

This layer is population density (with boundaries and place names).

We were told to find the distance between the greatest population density in India, and the lowest density in Nepal.  The colors showing density fade into each other....  I *think* I have found a place along the Indian/Nepali border that is part of India's most dense population, and have measured the distance from there to some of the sparsest population in Nepal.

Cool tools!
