A planning perspective

The maps that i reviewed on this website were pretty interesting alot of 3D images were used. It does both walk through and fly overview of all communities and sites that were in the maps. It show realistic land uses and when you go through the walk through view when u travel across the land it shows the elevation or the depressions in the ground. Another great use for these tools is that it helps you plan out real life problems and you are able to use the technology to maybe make a possible route for emergencie servies, redirect rivers and be able to see what kind of impact that it would have on the enviroment and if it would be the right choice to make for that time. Im really impressed at the technology that is being used in this system and i think it has alot of cool features for alot of different people who may need it for different things such as community developers,the EPA, different companies to see enviroment impacts and i even think its cool that a person who would want to maybe build a house on a remote esque piece of land could see exatly where they would be and what land features are around them and the elevtaion they would be at and see how they like it before they build it.

I really enjoyed this web page. The maps are very interesting in the way that you can see alot of different aspects of either the census or different population densitys and much more. I like the way you can zoom in on differnt areas on the map the different states and cities that are on the map and see how that area may differ from a neighboring states capitol city and compare the numbers and see how two areas so close could be so different. theres alot of maps on different races and different relgions and its pretty impressive to see the numbers and the population density in some of those maps in different areas on the U.S.
