Finished course 2 of a five-course GIS specialization. This one was about data and its formats. I love infographics and data design but this one has challenged me with algebra and Python. The capstone project was called Moving Valmeyer, a real situation where the town of Valmeyer in Ohio moved because of the loss of property and life they faced during consecutive floods for years. Years ago, as a journalist, I covered the settlements that were submerged because of the increase in the height of the Sardar Sarovar Dam. Now, on the other side, I got a faint idea of what goes through the mind of a town planner in the records department to decide where the villagers should be resettled.
