3D Atlanta Project Grows in Different Ways

So continuing my 2nd year as a SIF and my 2nd year as a part of the 3D Atlanta team, my knowledge for mapping continues to grow. Although I am on the research side, it is incredible to see how we can find pictures with the address, pinpoint them onto an photo map that is stitched into the modern-day Atlanta map, and then search for the exact location using Google Earth. It is amazing how we can see where exactly that former building stands today, and through this, we can see how it has evolved over time. Many building found in our research still exist today, while others were turned into the millions of parking decks we have in Atlanta haha. But 3D Atlanta has always been an amazing project to be a part of, and everyday I learn something new about Atlanta and how it has evolved over time. I have learn to really love my city, and I cannot wait to see how much we can accomplish with 3D Atlanta, and show the rest of our community how our loving city has changed in the course of decades.

 

Til next time,

About Krisna Patel

Hey everyone. The name's Krisna and most describe me as a bubbly, outgoing, fun-loving gal. I'm a British-born Indian who is a senior undergraduate majoring in Marketing and Computer Information Systems at Georgia State University with dreams of traveling the world and helping build homes with charities, such as Habitat for Humanity. I want to have a career in social media marketing, and perhaps dip my feet into application programming. During my spare time, I like to watch soccer, write music, and binge watch a good TV show. I hope to learn more of how technology is advancing and more ways of how it can help us on a daily basis, especially at GSU. Other aspirations include adding to my list of foreign languages. I speak fluent in Spanish, Gujarati, and Hindi, but would like to learn Portuguese, Arabic, and Swahili.
