Project 4- Prepare GIS and Transportation



What do you observe about the geographic distribution of households and their restaurant, liquor store, and wine purchases in Napa County?
Going by the maps it shows that normally areas with a larger total of households produce more wine purchases, than those areas that don't have as many homes.

What do you observe about the distribution of liquor stores and restaurants relative to these purchasing patterns?
Basically the same answer as the first question, areas with more households contain higher sales at restaurants and liquor stores.

Project 3- Prepare GIS and Economic Development





These are my maps that I created for Project 3 Prepare week. The first map displays 4 seperate Demographic Maps showing Avg Household Net Worth,College Percentages, Household Totals, and AVG Household Income. Included in all four maps are locations of Better Books Locations and Competitor Locations. The second map shows both store locations with a 1mile buffer surrounding it, also included in this map are Book Lovers Club locations and they are color coated to what store each club is affiliated to. This week was a breeze to complete and it felt good to be able to finish within a couple hours.
