fish habitat riparian management zones (river buffers), ungulate habitat areas, red-listed species. Since we are only interested in displaying the total area that is protected, we can use the Dissolve command (under geoprocessing – dissolve, input is the union layer, use all defaults, OK). What is the percent of the project area the falls in the sum of the protected areas? How does this value compare with the sum of answers 2-5? Part 5 Representation QUESTION 8. (10) Produce a map to include in your report with the following elements within the project boundary. Use appropriate symbology to highlight only those areas that negatively affect the proposed ski hill. As a final step, we will create a 3D hillshade of the project area, and drape some of our datasets over the hillshade. Turn off all your layers In ArcToolbox, Raster Surface > Hillshade use the original DEM as the input raster, output raster call hillshade use defaults for everything else (for fun, do this again, name your output hillshadez3 and use a Z value of 3 – see how more of the area is very steep slope with the vertical exaggeration) Click the rivers layer to draw – you will see it ‘drapped’ on the hillshade. Do the same for Roads project boundary and the index contours contours (Hint: there are a lot of contours, so reduce the line weight and, select only the index contours to map) and snowline contour (closest to 555m). Click on the ungulate to drape over the hillshade. In order to ‘see’ the hillshading under the ungulate layer, make the UGL layer transparent: Layer properties > display > transparent type in 50%. Repeat for the old grown layer. Repeat for the generalized Red listed species Repeat for the fishery habitat Add a title and subtitle: Insert > text add a title Add a legend Export to a pdf or jpg
