In this week's GIS lab, we learned about different ways of sharing map data with others and the public. The assignment was to create a geocoded "Top 10" list (in the form of a table of addresses tied to a map layer of point features) that was saved/presented three different ways: as a publicly viewable webmap on the ArcGIS website, as a map package that can be shared to use within ArcGIS Desktop, and as a KMZ file for use with Google Earth.
My Top 10 list is simply a list of some of the breweries and wineries in the area of central Virginia where I lived until recently. I thought that was a fun subject, and my familiarity with the area made it easy for me to see that my data was geocoded and displayed correctly.
