VBA APPLICATION TO CREATE A SHAPEFILE FROM XML FILE Project Sponser: David viljoen (Natural Resource Canada) Programmed By: Dinesh Sharma Class of 2007
|
This Application allows the user to download the XML File across the internet and provides the unique list of the XML ELements and Attributes to the user, than allows the user to create a shapefile of point features with this information, for example by setting the Latitude and Longitude XML Elements information to the Shape field of the shapefile that holds the geometry and gives the user the fiexibility to add or remove the rest of the XML ELements as the attribute fields of the shapefile. In addition to this application allows the user to set the output shapfile spatial reference, as well as name and directory. |

Ottawa Fire Services Fire Station Location Study Rick Lichtenauer Class of 2005
|
Much of this project is based around using the Network Analyst Extension to ArcGIS version 9.1. A prototype of an application was developed through the customization of Network Analyst functionality. Network Analyst can be used to analyze how drive speed of trucks and the location of fire stations and fire trucks affect response coverage. The prototype application demonstrates how, in addition to the out-of-the-box functionality provided by the Network Analyst Extension, it is possible to incorporate other spatial variables that attenuate response time to fires. Examples of factors which can impede response time are proximity to fire hydrants, slope, truck types responding and response configuration required to effectively manage fires and full time versus volunteer fire station response. |

River Habitat Mapping and Tool Customization for the Rideau Valley Conservation Authority (RVCA) Mathieu Leblanc Class of 2005 |
Main Objective: helping Rideau Valley Conservation Authority's (RVCA) Aquatic and Fish Habitat Biologists anticipate and make sound decisions concerning human activities (construction, rezoning, etc.) on or near the banks of the Rideau River. Methodology: digitizing and georeferencing Rideau River Ice Management Study maps, designing a habitat and fish information database model, and developing a custom data entry tool. The existing maps were developed into a personal geodatabase that contained the river edge, the islands, the retaining walls, the vegetation and the substrate information. Following consultation with RVCA, the custom data entry tool was developed using Visual Basic within ArcMap. Tool interfaces include:

Estimation Of Regional Seismic Potential for Central Quebec Based on Spatial Relationships between Epicenters of Earthquakes and Geological Structures Stefka Patchova Class of 2005
|
Weights of Evidence (WofE) analysis, part of the SDM extension of ArcView 3.3, is used to evaluate the association between epicenter locations and a number of geological parameters. The Study Area used for this WofE analysis is part of Central Quebec and has an area of 90,000 square km. The region is located in a seismically active zone where earthquakes with magnitude larger than 6 have occurred. Total number of available from the data epicenters within the area is 124. A total of 12 evidence themes are produced from following datasets: Mapped Faults, Gravity Anomalies, Magnetic Anomalies, Lithology and Hydrology maps of Study Area.
