Data Analysis in QGIS Assignment

Assignment Task

Introduction

This is your first piece of written assessment for the unit. It tests the skills and knowledge that you have acquired in the unit within weeks. You have been introduced to the functionality of QGIS and this first assignment provides a test of your basic spatial analysis and cartography skills. Overall, it is worth 30% of the unit assessment. You have randomly been allocated one SA2 - your SA2 will be listed under Assignment 1 in the LMS.

Brief

Based on the work completed in Weeks 2 to 4 you are to compile a short Report on Tree Canopy Cover within the Perth Metropolitan Region.

This is a short report, and you will need to be both precise and concise in reporting your findings.

Background

Based on course reading materials, together with further independent reading, provide a background section covering the importance and benefits of urban vegetation whilst identifying the characteristics of the urban environment that can influence urban vegetation. Based on the brief provided here under points 2 to 4 briefly outline the aims and objectives of this report.

Tree Canopy by Land-use

Based on the brief provided to you in Week 3 provide an analysis of the dynamics of tree canopy cover by land-use in your SA2 in comparison to tree canopy by land-use across the whole Greater Perth Region.

In class you were shown the steps required to compile tree canopy data using the land-use field called monitorcat as a land-use descriptor. For this assignment exercise you will need to complete the requisite steps to generate similar information using the field MB_cat16 as the descriptor of land-use.
