Lab 6


The location I selected is a mountain area near a small city called Chico in North California. By the slope map and the 3D map, we can see elevation is obviously rising from west to east as from the plain area to the mountains. We can also get insights into what direction a specific area of the DEM faces by looking at the aspect map. The topographical features of this location, which are presented by GIS, are pretty telling.
