MM Hills villages; purple = high elevation (1,000+m), cyan = low (400m)
I've been working on visualizing the sites I worked in. Didn't think to get my GIS site license updated before leaving so that left me in a bit of a quandary. Especially when it came to finding the underlying data files for the GPS locations. But I finally figured out how to find elevation data and more. Here's a look at my sites (each point labeled with the village it is in) color-coded for elevation. Turns out the villages weren't at the elevations I thought they would be when I started the study (will be analyzing data a little differently now) but, that's why you collect data. The cyan sites labeled "forest" are the areas where they take cattle to graze for much of the year.
