Discussion and analysis
To determine the suitable location, we will divide the work into three phases Phase one: analysis preparation
We first have to organize the tutorial data that we have. Organization of the data will entail
locating where our data and then transferring it to the ArcMap. This will then be followed by
setting the workspace, through navigation into the spatial analyst folder or rather the scratch.gdb
and then add it. The final step of the first phase is to add the data to the ArcMap and then save
the map document (Bonham-Carter, 2014). Phase 2: accessing the extension and data exploration
In the second phase, we will begin by assessing the ArcGIS spatial analyst extension license,
and if it is updated, then we proceed to add the spatial analyst toolbar. This toolbar contains a
histogram button and a create contour tool which assist in the development of a hillshade. From
this step, we proceed to display and explore the data. This will be then followed by selecting the
various feature of the map and identifying the features using the identify tool. The final stage
will be an examination of the histogram and saving the data (Chainey and Ratcliffe, 2013) Phase 3: Location of the site
