Working on my QGIS Skills
I created this map to show my understanding of the Clip, Buffer, and Difference vector tools as well as the MMQGIS plug in used to generate the distances in the legend, and the print layout functionality all within QGIS. The map shows what restaurants fall within a .5 mile to 2 mile radius of the neighborhood I live in.
Ending the Ago Old Question - Which Course Is Best For All Of Us?
I golf with many people but I have my regular foursome. When we started golfing we all live relatively close to one another. Over the years jobs and family has made us move farther apart. We still try to get together regularly though but when we do the question always becomes, “Which course are we going to play at?” Once a course name is thrown out the inevitable next response is that is SO FAR for me. This has driven me to narrow down the courses that work best for all of us. And they are pictured below.
Central Bucks Elementary School District Rankings
I had to produce a map for my QGIS Certification and decided to create one ranking the elementary schools in our area. Since all of the schools in our area have a similar overall Niche Ranking I had to find something else to differentiate them and decided to compare them on their combine Math and Reading proficiency scores. This is the map I ended up with for 2022.
US 2020 Election
I produced these for my QGIS Certification. I created this map because I dislike the political extremism that is happening in this country right now. I had noticed that every map I saw during the 2020 election was either ALL RED or ALL BLUE which is a false way to report the data. States, like people, can fall in the middle and not be an extreme. This map is supposed to depict that.
Interactive Web Components
While at ETS I have been responsible for developing Interactive Web Components, an authoring tool used to author assessment items with embedded Interactive Web Components, and Framework that allowed us to assemble content in multiple ways to take advantage of feature pairings.
Testing Normal Distributions
I wanted to have a tool to help explain the math concept of normal distribution. Once I developed that tool I expanded on it to help explain many types of distributions.
Art With Code
As a hobby I like to develop code that generates SVG art. This series was inspired by the art of David Hansen https://davidhansenart.pixels.com/ . I have modified this code to create many different effect examples can be seen below.
Creating a Tool to Help Create Art
I created a tool using JavaScript, HTML, and SVG to help me product abstract art. This video demonstrates how it works.
