PART III: Process Summary Details
Part I: Building a File Geodatabase
1) Open ArcCatalog
2) Navigate to Tsunami folder
3) Select Roads.shp and the Preview tab
4) Bottom of page, select Table from drop-down
5) Right-click TsunamiGDB and select
New, then File Geodatabase and name it Tsunami.gdb
6) Right-click TsunamiGDB, click New and
select Feature Dataset and name it Transportation
7) Select the UTM54N Projected
Coordinate System under UTM>WGS84, use defaults for rest of options
8) Right-select Transportation feature
dataset and Import >Feature Class (multiple)
9) Browse to BaseData folder and select
Rails, click Add and again for Roads, hit OK
10) Open ArcMap
11) Select File>Add Data>Add XY
Data
12) Navigate to Fukushima.xls, City_Population$
Events, select the same coordinate system as above
13) Export data to a shapefile called
JapanCities1
14) Add two new feature datasets,
Administrative and Damage_Assessment
15) Add required feature classes to each
one
16) Build raster attribute tables for the
four DEMs using the Build Raster Attribute Table in ArcToolbox>Data
Management>Raster>Raster Properties
17) Right-click on the Tsunami.gdb and
select New>Raster Dataset, using FukDEM the Raster Dataset Name, and Pixel
Type: 16_BIT_UNSIGNED, Spatial Reference WGS84_UTM54N, hit OK
18) Load the two N37E DEMs to the FukDEM
raster dataset
19) Repeat process for another with the
name SendDEM and add the N38E DEMs to this one
20) Right-Click the FukeDEM and select
Calculate Statistics, use defaults, click OK
21) Repeat for SendDEM
22) Save screen shot as jpg
Part II: Fukushima Radiation Exposure
Zones
1) Open
ArcMap and add JpnBndOutline, NuclearPwrPlnt, JapanCities, Roads,
NEJapanPrefectures
2) Select
the Fukushima II nuclear plant and save as Fukushima_PPt in the Tsunami.gdb
3) Create
a multi ring buffer of 3, 7, 15, 30, 40, 50 miles and save as MultiRingBuffer
in the Damage_Assessment feature dataset
4) Clip
the MiltiRingBuffer to the JpnBndOutline and name it Fuku_Evac_Zones
5) Remove
MiltiRingBuffer
6) Edit
symbology for the Fuku_Evac_Zones
7) Clip
the roads to NEJpnPrefectures
8) Remove
Roads from map
9) Query
cities in the Fuku_Evac_Zones, save screen shot for PS, and save as
Evac_Zone_cities
10) Finish
answering questions
11) Create
labels for Japan cities showing name and population
12) Switch
to Map View and finalize map
