Day 26: Monday 3 October - presenting the results of geospatial analysis

This weekend I finalised the results of the physical building attributes which were reported in detail in yesterday's post. One of the objectives of my work here is to determine in what format agencies would like the geospatial data and results to be produced and presented. After discussing this with the team here in Haiti I have decided to present the data in several different formats. Each piece of work I will produce for BRC will be presented as 1. a written report, 2. a cleaned excel sheet (for further analysis of data), 3. a cleaned GIS shapefile (for further GIS analysis and modification), 4. JPEGS of main maps and figures and 5. Google Earth files to allow the results to be visualised by those outside of the country and/or those without access to GIS.

The video below shows an example of two of the datasets being viewed in Google Earth. First the number of storeys is visualised as 3D polygons (1-storey = yellow; 2-storey = orange and 3-storey = red). The building plot status is then visualised. Note that the attributes for each building may be viewed by clicking on the building of interest:
