    MGDS-GeoMapApp Exercises, January 2009 MGDS Data Exploration Tools – Hands-on exercises and usability feedback Please try the following short exercises. Remember, there are multimedia tutorials and help pages at this web page: http://www.geomapapp.org/ GeoMapApp: Search for geochemical signatures using PetDB petrology Zoom to the EPR 9N Integrated Study Site. Most of this seafloor is mapped with high-resolution multibeam; fuzzy areas around the edges are the background satellite altimetry-derived bathymetry. Load the PetDB samples chemistry (Focus Sites -> Select From Searchable List, type “MORB” into search box, click once on EPR Rock samples and MORB chemistry from PetDB, then hit OK). When the table is loaded, use the Colour By Value button to colour the symbols on, say, MgO. In the colour palette window, slide the grey lines sideways to change the colour scale. Use the Graph button to plot FeOT against MgO. In the graph plot window, click on the Lasso tool and use the mouse to encircle the high-MgO outliers. This lights up the symbols both on the graph and in the map window. Bonus: On the right, use the Save drop-down menu to copy the selected points into an Excel spreadsheet and open the spreadsheet. Note: you can also pull up these samples using the real-time PetDB Web Feature Service, as follows. File -> Import Dataset from WFS. From the drop-down menu, select PetDB, hit Connect. Hit Load Feature (may take a few minutes depending upon the internet connection).
