As the power of GIS has increased over the years so has its versatility. This exercise combined the spatial projection of this region with its location quotient analysis to assess economic impacts. This map was created using multiple spatial and operational functions to denote the spatial relationship between the industries and their economic performance. Based on the results, the local governmental authorities can see that the south side of Peltrum region's economy is based heavily upon agriculture, forestry, and fishing exports. I did not encounter any major problems in creating this map; however, I had to make several attempts to get the calculations correct.
