Canada's Climate - Working with Graphs

Due to Canada's enormous landmass, Canadians all across the country experience a whole range of weather patterns and conditions. A region's climate reflects the weather patterns in that area over time.

In this exercise you will examine climate data from different places across Canada. Using ArcView, you will generate climate graphs for these areas and compare the different types of climate across the country.

Before you begin this lesson you will need to download the data that is used throughout the exercise. The dataset for this lesson is available in .ZIP or .EXE format. Using the .EXE file, the data will be extracted to the correct folder when you double-click the downloaded file to execute it. If you are unable to download the .EXE file due to your network or service provider's security measures, download the .ZIP file and be sure to extract the data to the folder indicated in the lesson instructions. If you cannot download either of the files available here, contact your system administrator. If you have any questions, send an e-mail to K-12@esricanada.com.
