Yesterday I had spoken with Michael Boubis, the superintendent of the Bethpage Water District. We discussed what my project is about and he had invited me to the administrative building for the water district to discuss my project in person! Unfortunately, that means that I will have to wait until after Easter break to come up with a full draft of my map. But I am really excited for this experience to see a real life application of GIS. Today in class I did more research to find locations of the water wells in Bethpage. I found out that there are eight wells and their locations in Bethpage but I could not find specific coordinates for them. I will try to find coordinates to map them for the works-in-progress presentation next week. For the rest of this week I will also be working on getting a presentation together for next week.
