This map shows the area of Pascagoula, Mississippi coded into LULC land classifications. Most of this city is made up of water and residential areas. The red and green points are random ground-truthing sample points that were used to calculate the overall accuracy of the land classifications I made. The red points are areas that I misclassified and the green points are the areas I classified correctly. I had 70 percent accuracy for my classifications, which I consider to be very good for my first time doing this.
This was a very time-consuming lab, but it was not difficult. I actually learned a lot of little map-making techniques that I didn't know about before like how to incorporate multiple fields into unique values symbology and edit the labels of the symbols. I also enjoyed learning about the Create Random Points tool. I want to learn how to change the layout's background color so that it's not always a bland white, but I couldn't figure out how to do that when I was exploring all of the layout panes. One of my goals is to be able to do that by the end of this course.
