ESE 502 Tony E. Smith ASSIGNMENT 1 Before beginning this assignment, look at Part IV (SOFTWARE) of the class NOTEBOOK. In particular, look at the three sections: “Opening JMP”, “Opening ARCMAP”, and “Opening MATLAB”. These give you general instructions on how to access the software for the class and set up appropriate paths to the class directory inside the software. Also, read over the Example Assignment and Example Answer (especially the introductory paragraph). Your answer to each problem below should present a short but self-contained study of the data set presented. (1) This first study is an extension of Exercise 1.5 of B&G, based on a set of Burkitt’s Lymphoma data from the West Nile region in Uganda. The key source material for this study is the paper by Williams et al. on “Burkitt’s Lymphoma” in the reference materials. You can find additional material on the web with key words such as “Burkitt’s Lymphoma” and “West Nile”. (a) In ARCMAP open the file Lymphoma.mxb in the class directory (course data directories (T:)\ese502\arcview\ Projects\Lymphoma\Lymphoma.mxd). Before doing anything else, save this file to your home directory (say S:\home). Now you will be able to save your work to your home directory. As you will see from the reference material, Burkitt’s Lymphoma is most common among children. To study this population, you are going to construct [in a manner similar to the logical (indicator) variable used in Exercise 1.5] a selection of those cases with ages from 5 to 10, i.e., with 5 Age 10. To do so: 1. Right click on the layer ‘lymph_data’ in the Table of Contents (window on the left) and open the Attribute Table. 2. In the upper left, click on Table Options  Select By Attributes. 3. In the text box type: ( "AGE" >=5) AND ( "AGE" <=10) (You can also use the menu items to do this). Now click Save and save this calculation as a file 5_to_10.exp in your home directory. Then click Apply And close both calculator window and the attribute table. You should now see the selected points on the map. 4. Next you will make a new layer containing only these data points. To do so, right click the layer ‘lymph_data’ and click: Selection  Create Layer from Selected Features. A new layer will now appear in the Table of Contents. If you remove the check on the layer ‘lymph_data’ you will see that only the selected points appear on the map. [You can rename this new layer as ‘5-to-10 Cases’ by right clicking the layer, and then clicking Properties  General. Also you can change the map symbol by left-clicking on the symbol in the2Table of Contents.] Once you are satisfied with the looks of this new layer, be SURE to save Lymphoma.mxb again, so that your work is not lost. 5. Next you will make a layer containing only those points not in the ‘5-to-10’ cases. To do so, right click on layer ‘lymph_data’ and again open the Attribute Table. As before, click Options  Select By Attributes. Now click Load and reload the file 5_to_10.exp from your home directory. The calculation will appear in the window. Click Apply and Close. The selections will appear in the attribute table. Now click Options  Switch Selection. Those points not in ‘5-to-10’ will now be selected. Repeat step 4 to create a new layer ‘All other Cases’. 6. To compare these layers visually, it is more appropriate to use population density as the “reference” layer. To do so, remove the check for the ‘W_NILE_BD’ layer, so that the ‘pop_density’ layer underneath should now be visible. (You should also choose a color for the dots that contrasts with the pop_density map, such as ‘bright red’.) 7a. Finally, copy the maps for these layers into WORD 2003 (See 7b for WORD 2007) for a visual comparison. (1) To do so, display only the ‘5-to-10 Cases’ layer on the map and in the main menu click: File  Export Map. Save the file to your home directory in Enhanced Metafile (.emf) format. (2) Now open WORD and click Insert  Picture  From File. The picture should now appear in the WORD document. (Depending on the state of the Network, this may take a while.) (3) Be sure the “Picture” tool bar is visible (if not, click: View  Toolbars Picture). Click the Crop option on the Picture toolbar, and crop the frame sides tightly around the map (by placing the mouse on the square for each side and dragging the side). Click outside the image to disengage the Crop tool. (4) Now click the picture again and drag the corners to achieve the image size you want on the page. (5) Finally, to position the picture, click Format  Picture  Layout, and select “Behind Text” and click OK. (6) You will now see that the picture frame has changed to hollow circles (or squares). Place the mouse anywhere on the picture and drag it where you want.3 7b. [WORD 2007 version] Finally, copy the maps for these layers into WORD for a visual comparison. (1) To do so, display only the ‘5-to-10 Cases’ layer on the map and in the main menu click: File  Export Map. Save the file to your home directory in Enhanced Metafile (.emf) format. (2) Now open WORD and click Insert  Picture  From File. The picture should now appear in the WORD document. (Depending on the state of the Network, this may take a while.) (3) When you right click on the picture that appears, the “Picture Toolbar” will automatically appear in the Main Menu. Click the Crop option on the Picture toolbar, and crop the frame sides tightly around the map (by placing the mouse on the square for each side and dragging the side). Click outside the image to disengage the Crop tool. (4) Now click the picture again and drag the corners to achieve the image size you want on the page. (5) Finally, to position the picture, under Arrange select Text Wrapping  Behind Text and click OK. (6) You will now be able to place the mouse anywhere on the picture and drag it where you want. 8. Now repeat the procedure in step 6 for the layer ‘All other Cases’. You can arrange them side by side and label them using the ‘Text box’ button on the bottom tool bar to label them as ‘5-to-10 Cases’ and ‘All other Cases’. 9. Finally, compare these two patterns visually. 1. How do the patterns of points relate to the population density? 2. Are there any clear
