HW (Due 02/14)

Two weeks for this one, so it will be a bit tricksy! Don't panic if you get stuck. Keep at it.  :)
(FILES)
You will use the provided three files. The provided files are (1) Bars, a point shapefile, (2) bg a Census Block Group shapefile, and (3) census09.xls, an Excel workbook containing a single sheet with some older 2009 Census variables by Census Block Group.
Write a script that creates a new shapefile containing *only* those bars that are fully or partially within a 0.5 mile radius around block groups with an income greater than $200,000.
TIPS:
  • Make sure you can complete the exercise without any scripting first
  • You can team up into groups of two if you wish
  • Office Hours Saturdays, noon until 5-ish
