Wine is good in Napa

Napa County Sales Prospects
The concentration of prospective locations is problematic for dividing sales territories. Outlying areas have long travel times, and more 'windshield time' for sales reps.
The Southeast census tracts, and pockets along the main traffic corridor, present the best opportunities for market expansion (based on hypothetical consumer behavior).
As a rural County, Napa offers a unique chance to exploit consumer behavior; perhaps the wineries themselves or adjacent commercial sites may be as advantageous as the more concentrated restaurant and liquor store locations in the population and transit area.
Allocating sales reps' territories should reflect this combination of concentrated sites and distant local wineries.

Project 2 - Report

Marin City has high hopes for a City Center, and being 'green'. I've struggled with the economic issues, as they won't fly... Not uncommon re the environment Vs bottom line.

Module 5 - Pensacola LiDAR Image


Well, here is a little slice of Western Florida. Look closely and you can see the natives frolicking in the surf (watch out for the tarballs). Other than the incredible IDW 'magic man' act (think Talladega Nights), it was strightforward. Now where did I put that rubric?

Module 4 - Pieces of the puzzle...









Can't seem to figure out the 'map making' parts of ERDAS, so here are the Legend and Histograms. Raster classification seems less alien now, and somehow worked. Merging Classes, not so much.

I'm curious to see how much of the same functionality is in Arc.

Module 4 - First draft


Here is the classified image, with an illegible legend. Back to ERDAS...
