Preguntas de Muestra
Elige una respuesta y consulta la explicación para ver cómo funciona la práctica.
A conservation nonprofit compares county habitat acreage across an entire state. A draft map uses a conformal projection chosen because local shapes look familiar. Which projection property should be prioritized for the acreage comparison?
A GIS server license and database CPU usage both peak during quarterly tax-map publication. Users blame the web app, but monitoring is minimal. What should the GIS manager implement first?
An analyst presents a suitability map to non-GIS executives. The map ranks one site highest, but the result depends on uncertain soil data and stakeholder-selected weights. What should the analyst communicate?
A consultant proposes shapefiles for a statewide asset inventory with long field names, null values, Unicode names, and mixed point and line inspection geometries. What is the best concern to raise?
A GIS application team releases a parcel review tool without involving permit clerks until launch. Clerks reject it because the search workflow does not match permit numbers. Which development practice would have reduced the risk?
