The paper focuses on a class project that incorporates accessing the City of Santa Fe GIS database, building a theme and clipping to a study area, using GPS to check the City's digitized infrastructure data, integrating digital photographs, generating an attributed point coverage, and presenting the whole in both electronic and paper media.
