After meeting with Dr. Fraser and deciding on the 2 sites he wanted me to map, we ran in to a bit of trouble in determining what the coordinates of each site were. Luckily, Dr. Fraser had topographic maps of Thacher State Park. He marked off the location of both sites and was able to calculate their coordinates using a mapping tool. I now need to find a map of both sites using these coordinates. Finding clear, accurate maps is important because they will be the base layer upon which the data is plotted. I will start off by searching Google Earth to see if it can provide me with the maps I am looking for.
