How to Prepare Campus Map or Any Institutional Location Map using ArcGIS and with a little help of Graphics

Image
Locator map using ArcMap Creating a campus map or institutional location map using ArcGIS, coupled with graphic design elements, can significantly enhance the overall navigational experience for users. ArcGIS, a powerful geographic information system (GIS) software, allows for the integration of spatial data, making it an ideal tool for mapping diverse campus features. Begin the process by gathering relevant spatial data, such as building outlines, walkways, parking lots, and landmarks. This information can be collected through satellite imagery or surveyed using GPS devices. Import the data into ArcGIS, ensuring accurate georeferencing for precise spatial representation. Utilize the software's layering capabilities to organize the various elements of the campus map. Separate layers for buildings, roads, green spaces, and other features enable easy customization and updating. ArcGIS offers a range of symbology options, allowing users to choose distinct colors, symbols, and labels f

  Locator map of Bhola Govt. College Suddenly, My boss asked me to Prepare a campus map. At first, I thought it was easy but not that much. This is not the final file. If you want to know and get the guidelines then contact with me. Oh !! It took surprisingly less time than expected. ই ক্যাম্পাস ম্যাপ বা প্রতিষ্ঠানের অবস্থান ম্যাপ তৈরি করা ArcGIS ব্যবহার করে, যা গ্রাফিক ডিজাইন উপাদানের সাথে যোগ করে তবে ব্যবহারকারীদের জন্য সামগ্রিক নেভিগেশনাল অভিজ্ঞতা অত্যন্ত উন্নত করতে পারে। একটি শক্তিশালী ভৌগোলিক তথ্য সিস্টেম (GIS) সফটওয়্যার, ArcGIS স্থানীয় তথ্যের সংযোজনের অনুমতি দেয়, এটি বিভিন্ন ক্যাম্পাস বৈশিষ্ট্যগুলি ম্যাপ করার জন্য একটি আদর্শ সরঞ্জাম। Begin the process by gathering relevant spatial data, such as building outlines, walkways, parking lots, and landmarks.

Bangladesh Transverse Mercator (BTM), Projections

Image
A projected coordinate system has a flat, 2D surface with constant lengths, angles, and areas across the two dimensions. Which makes it easier to calculate properties like the area, and distance of an object in a map. UTM (Universal Transverse Mercator) is a widely used projected coordinate system that divides the Earth into sixty zones, each in a six-degree interval. As Bangladesh lies between UTM Zone 45N and 46N, FAP19 has adopted a Transverse Mercator projection for Bangladesh. PaThe parametersf this projection are: SL. No NAME BANGLADESH TRANSVERSE MERCATOR (BTM) 1 Projection Transverse Mercator 2 False Easting 500000 3 False Northing -2000000 4 Central Meridian 90 5 Scale Factor 0.9996 6 Latitude Of Origin 0 7 Linear Unit Meter (1.0)

Download and walkthrought of QGIS: A Free and Open Source Geographic Information System

QGIS (Quantum Geographic Information System) is free, open-source software that allows users to create, edit, visualize, analyze, and publish geospatial information. There are many benefits to using QGIS. First, the software offers many free online resources and maps available to download. <!-- Google Tag Manager (noscript) --> <noscript><iframe src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/ns.html?id=GTM-MDFS8XP" height="0" width="0" style="display:none;visibility:hidden"></iframe></noscript> <!-- End Google Tag Manager (noscript) --> QGIS is A Free and Open Source Geographic Information System. In comparison to ArcGIS, QGIS is much faster than ArcGIS. Reliability: ArcGIS has better spatial topological analytical capabilities and provides more reliable results. The value of cluster tolerance in ArcMap is limited to 0.0000009. The process of making maps using QGIS Download and install QGIS . Download Link: QGI

Demographic Transition Model

Image
  Definition of Demographic Transitional Model The Demographic transition model (DTM) is a model used to represent the process of explaining the transformation of countries from high birth rates and high death rates to low birth rates and low death rates as part of the economic development of a country from a pre-industrial to an industrialized economy . It is based on an interpretation begun in 1929 by the American demographer Warren Thompson   of prior observed changes, or transitions, in birth and death rates in industrialized societies over the past two hundred years. Diagram which includes stage five Most developed countries are beyond stage three of the model; the majority of developing countries are in stage 2 or stage 3. The model was based on the changes seen in Europe so these countries follow the DTM relatively well. Many developing countries have moved into stage 3. The major exceptions are some poor countries, mainly in sub-Saharan Africa and some Middle Eastern count
