00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,820
Here's a useful tip that might come in handy when you're making your quantitative maps.
2
00:00:04,820 --> 00:00:09,240
You may end up having some values that are zero in your data set.
3
00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:11,280
As long as those are real values,
4
00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:13,660
you know that there are zeros, if that makes sense that they're supposed to be there.
5
00:00:13,660 --> 00:00:16,860
Maybe, you have census tracts where there's nobody living there,
6
00:00:16,860 --> 00:00:18,910
it could be an industrial area or something like that.
7
00:00:18,910 --> 00:00:21,135
That's fine but it can have an effect on
8
00:00:21,135 --> 00:00:26,160
the color scheme for your data classes and how that data are interpreted.
9
00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:29,760
So, one technique that can be a useful tip is to actually exclude
10
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:33,740
the zero values from your data classification. I'll show you how to do that.
11
00:00:33,740 --> 00:00:38,525
So, here we have the classification dialog box in ArcMap.
12
00:00:38,525 --> 00:00:42,780
We can just click this little button here for Exclusion.
13
00:00:42,780 --> 00:00:45,470
All that does is you are going to select data that we
14
00:00:45,470 --> 00:00:49,410
don't want to include in our data classification.
15
00:00:49,410 --> 00:00:52,590
So, if we click on that Exclusion dialog box,
16
00:00:52,590 --> 00:00:55,625
we'll end up with this other dialog box here
17
00:00:55,625 --> 00:00:59,260
and we can build a query which is essentially what's happening here,
18
00:00:59,260 --> 00:01:03,265
where it says SELECT FROM Median Income WHERE,
19
00:01:03,265 --> 00:01:05,990
median income equals zero.
20
00:01:05,990 --> 00:01:08,030
So, all we're doing is saying, select the values that
21
00:01:08,030 --> 00:01:10,370
meet the criterion that we've set up here.
22
00:01:10,370 --> 00:01:13,980
All that is, is a very simple one saying if the value equals zero,
23
00:01:13,980 --> 00:01:16,370
then it's going to be excluded.
24
00:01:16,510 --> 00:01:21,640
So, here's the results of my doing that is I now have,
25
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:26,450
this is a diverging color scheme for median household income here.
26
00:01:26,450 --> 00:01:32,000
So, I've indicated the median here on the map in PowerPoint. You can do this.
27
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:36,405
Sometimes, it's useful to put that in a map or in Legend in some way,
28
00:01:36,405 --> 00:01:39,755
in order to be able to tell people even though it is diverging,
29
00:01:39,755 --> 00:01:42,550
where the point is,
30
00:01:42,550 --> 00:01:43,865
where they're diverging from.
31
00:01:43,865 --> 00:01:46,810
But the main thing I wanted to point out here is I've added
32
00:01:46,810 --> 00:01:49,880
this Legend category which is unpopulated.
33
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:53,840
So, you can see that there's a few census tracts around the city,
34
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:56,100
where there really isn't anybody living there.
35
00:01:56,100 --> 00:01:58,175
So, why is this important?
36
00:01:58,175 --> 00:02:00,915
Well, imagine if you were showing this map to,
37
00:02:00,915 --> 00:02:03,290
say a policy maker of some kind,
38
00:02:03,290 --> 00:02:06,050
and they're interested in providing social services for
39
00:02:06,050 --> 00:02:09,020
people who are in low-income areas.
40
00:02:09,020 --> 00:02:12,640
Well, if you have those as zeros,
41
00:02:12,640 --> 00:02:15,060
so in other words, on the map,
42
00:02:15,060 --> 00:02:18,080
this would be shown as an area where the median income is zero,
43
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,540
if somebody just looked at that quickly they'd say, "Well,
44
00:02:20,540 --> 00:02:24,650
that must be a very poor neighborhood because the median income is so low."
45
00:02:24,650 --> 00:02:28,845
It would just show up on the map as being a really dark red.
46
00:02:28,845 --> 00:02:33,160
So, somebody may misinterpret that map and look at it and say,
47
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,605
"There these areas where there's very low income,
48
00:02:35,605 --> 00:02:37,455
we should do something about that.
49
00:02:37,455 --> 00:02:41,640
This should have an influence or an effect on the policy decisions that we make."
50
00:02:41,640 --> 00:02:43,505
When really, there's just nobody living there.
51
00:02:43,505 --> 00:02:44,995
That's perfectly fine.
52
00:02:44,995 --> 00:02:48,190
It's not that there's people living there with low-income,
53
00:02:48,190 --> 00:02:49,620
except there's nobody there at all.
54
00:02:49,620 --> 00:02:54,500
So, it may seem like a small point but I do think these kinds of little attentions to
55
00:02:54,500 --> 00:02:56,840
detail can make a difference in terms
56
00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,605
of the way that your map is perceived, the way it's interpreted.
57
00:02:59,605 --> 00:03:03,465
So, it's really takes a few seconds to change it and to add
58
00:03:03,465 --> 00:03:05,060
that a little bit of nuance to
59
00:03:05,060 --> 00:03:08,410
your map and it will just make it a little bit better overall.5158
