Question 1: When conducting environmental data visualization, which of the following is most appropriate for showing spatial relationships?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Heatmaps

Scatter plots

Pie charts

Line charts

Question 2: How do you identify outliers in a large environmental dataset?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

By assuming outliers are errors and removing them without further analysis

By excluding data points that are far away from the mean

By using statistical techniques such as Z-scores, IQR, or boxplots to detect values that fall outside the expected range

By visually inspecting the data and manually identifying outliers

Question 3: When displaying pollution hotspots on a heatmap, which of the following metrics is usually represented by color intensity?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Temperature readings of the affected area

Proximity of the hotspot to residential areas

Number of monitoring stations in the area

Concentration of pollutants such as nitrogen oxides or particulate matter

Question 4: How does data imputation improve the quality of environmental datasets with missing values?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

It removes missing values to ensure accuracy

It eliminates extreme values in the data

It standardizes all measurements to a common unit

It estimates missing values based on available data and patterns

Question 5: In an environmental data visualization, what is the benefit of using a dynamic range of colors in a heatmap?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

To represent only two categories of data

To create a visually appealing design

To show varying levels of intensity for different environmental factors

To standardize the data into a single category

Question 6: How do you ensure the accuracy of spatial analysis in GIS when working with heterogeneous data sources?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

By focusing on one dataset at a time and excluding others

By assuming that differences in data sources do not affect analysis accuracy

By carefully standardizing data formats, projections, and scales across all sources before performing analysis

By excluding data sources with varying projections or formats
