Today, we learned about our town’s water, specifically where we get it and how and where we use it. You can see maps and charts from our lesson below. In addition, I edited my code for the DataDisplay. I changed the timestamp at the bottom of the GUI to use the last time saved instead of the first, as otherwise, the timestamps could be off by more than a half minute. Afterwards, we began working on our final presentations and took a visit to our town’s water treatment plant. I took pictures and have uploaded them to the slideshow at the bottom of the page.

Utilizing what I learned earlier in the camp, I used Geosheets to make the following map of the water distribution storage facilities (based off the map above):
