Tasks and Deliverables

Assignment

This assignment has two tasks.

Task 1: Find an article

Please find an article that describes a 3D/VR workflow. Make sure that the article has been peer-reviewed. Determine whether the entire article was peer-reviewed (most journals are) or just the abstract was peer-reviewed (as some conference proceedings may be). Either download the article, if that is an option or save the URL to the article for use in the second half of your assignment.

Task 2: Write a review on the article

Once you have decided upon an article, write a 4-6 sentence paragraph detailing why you selected this particular article and what you like about it. Make sure that you explain how the article adds value to GIS and/or other sciences. Some reasons you might select an article are because it discusses advances in GIS and/or other disciplines you think are important, it describes its topic clearly, it is informative and would allow you to implement a workflow yourself, or it gets high marks because it is just cool. In your document, provide a full reference for the article (using APA style) and a link to the article or provide an electronic copy of the document. Below are two examples of complete references.
