Part A - Steps, explanations, mark allocation criteria, and mark breakdownAllocated Your marks 1 Submit the assignment with the correct PDF filename. 55 2 The theme of the map. Your map will be a combination of data layers compiled into a meaningful theme. 0 marks for no proper theme, 1-4 marks for simple themes such as, "road map", "land cover". 5 - 10 marks depending on the uniqueness and meaningfulness of the map theme, which reflects the map title. 1010 3 Map title. Relationship between the map title and used GIS data. As an example: a map with Rivers (data layer 1), Lakes (data layer 2), and Channels (data layer 3), the title can be "Hydrology of North-western Australia". 0 for a poor relationship, 1-3 for a good relationship, and 4-5 for excellent relationship. 55 4 GIS data collection. The relevance, accuracy, and richness of the collected GIS data for the map. 0 - 7 for very basic data (roads, rivers, cities), 8 - 14 Meaningful GIS data layers, 15 -22 Meaningful and well- related GIS data, and 23 -30 Meaningful, excellent data plus the use of self-generated data. 3030 5 MODIS fire images, any other satellite data collection and use those data in the map. The relevance, accuracy, and richness of the collected remote sensing (raster) data for the map will be inspected. 0 for no satellite data, 1-5 Only one raster data layer, 6-10 More than one satellite data sets (multitemporal or multi-source), and 11-20 Meaningful analysis and mix with vector data and incorporate to the map theme. 2020 6 Map elements. Correct and complete inclusion of all map elements get full marks. 0 for no map elements, 1-9 for inclusion of some elements, 10 -20 for inclusion of needed map elements, 21- 30 for accuracy, placement, and neatness. 3030 7 Colours, symbols, labels, etc. Correct use of these elements, (please revisit the GIS1401 lessons about legibility, nomenclature, etc.) 1-7 marks for poor attention (e.g., red for rivers), 8-15 for standard use (blue for rivers), 15-22 for meaningful use (line thickness), 23-30 highly accurate and meaningful use (added labels). 3030 Marking Rubric for GIS1401 (Geographic Data Presentation) Assignment 02 2020 USQ Student Name: Attention: Before starting the two maps of assignment 2, please READ all mark allocation criteria and understand how the breakdown of marks set for each subsection (in blue letters).
