Title: Discussion Module 2 - Manifest Destiny
Course: MASTER-GIST-1130-Patton > Section: Module 2 Creating a geodatabase

Your instructor is in a pioneering mood and has decided to visit Scotts Bluff National Monument.   Your instructor would like to create a map with the following features.

- Hiking trails and historical trails
- Roads
- Latest available aerial imagery
- Points of interest
- Water bodies
- Towns
- Campgrounds
- Any other data you think would be helpful

The instructor would like to be able to download the data to use in ArcMap.

Your mission is to list websites that have the data available for download.  Please explain what data is available, and how the data can be downloaded for use in ArcMap.  Be specific. One response to the instructor with information and help on locating and downloading the desired data is required, along with a response to one of your classmate’s posts.

www.nps.gov is not specific.

Here's a good example from one student.

My first instinct was to build it myself on ArcGIS On-line My Map. But the different layers didn't seem so easy to find. I just looked up the actual park in Google and got this. http://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=f3a53a6fe7ca4b91a4c30b45e4dab1d2 . If you click on Open in ArcGIS for Desktop then right click add feature class > Data > Export and save the data to your computer.

Happy hunting!
