Abstract
GPS samples were taken on five local jogging routes beginning and ending at Merrill Gymnasium and incorporated into ArcGIS. Line features were added to GoogleEarth maps, and changes in elevation were displayed as topographic profiles. Special attractions along the routes (e.g., Throrncrag Bird Sanctuary, Androscoggin River) were marked with feature polygons. Each route was evaluated based on its distance and topographic profile and assigned a color-coded difficulty ranking. This map will be posted in Merrill Gymnasium for the use of students, faculty, staff, and the Lewiston community.
