You are the owner of a small GIS-based services start-up company and a client approaches your company for soliciting a quote to perform the following GIS-based services: Create digital data from paper maps of privately owned land (near the Algonquin Provincial Park) that the client owns and intends to develop an eco-tourism camp on wooded lots connected by a road and nature trails, in Whitney, Ontario. Develop a GIS model to study the potential environmental impact of the proposed development to the surrounding area including the Algonquin Provincial Park. However, the client would like to meet with you first to ask some GIS-related questions to ensure that your company is up for this task, before her lawyers and administrative team send you the RFP for this project. Her team, consisting of the following people, is ready to meet with you at her company headquarters in Orillia, Ontario today: Owner/client Project manager (also an environmental geoscientist familiar with GIS) Project coordinator (who has some rudimentary knowledge of GIS) Lawyer (who has some rudimentary knowledge of GIS
Questions
There are some paper copies of the land survey and maps of other important "infrastructure" (i.e., some oil and natural gas pipelines that pass through a portion of her land), that currently generates revenue for the owner. The client expects your team will recreate this information as digital files in a GIS software. As you may recall from your introductory-level GIS course at college, there are two ways to convert paper maps to a digital format resulting in two very different GIS data models.
1. Identify the two methods to create or capture geospatial data for a GIS, and the corresponding file types generated by the two main data types.
2. Briefly explain at least two differences between the two types of geospatial data model formats.
3. Provide one example of each of the main geospatial data types.
