2. SALUTATIONS
• The Head of Department
• Distinguished Lecturers
• Fellow Presenters
I welcome everyone to this SIWES presentation.

3. ABSTRACT
In our world today, even in every education system, abstract
knowledge alone would not be sufficed to prepare an educated
person for the world of work without practical skills. The worker
or productive individual must not only be knowledgeable but must
also be versatile in the application of skills to perform defined task
or work. There are two basic forms of learning; the first one is
Education and the second one is Training. Both of which are
indispensable to the productive world of work and the functioning
of society today

4. FOREWORD
Acquiring practical experiences as regards the field of
Geography and Planning Science is the major aim of the
SIWES programme and the like. This presentation therefore
focuses predominantly on the experiences I acquired in the
course of my internship programme at the Department of
Urban and Regional Planning and its profession at large.
My experiences were however theoretical and practical.
These are further explicated thus;

5. INDUSTRIAL TRAINING EXPERIENCES
• Automated Computer Aided Drafting (AutoCAD) Software
• Site Inspection
• Statistical Data Analysis Software Applications
a) Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS)
b) Microsoft Office (Excel Package)
• Garmin Geographical Positioning System (GPS) Device
• Site Analysis Report

6. Automated Computer Aided Drafting
• It is popular known as AutoCAD.
• AutoCAD is a commercial drafting software application
developed and marketed by Autodesk.
• It was first released in December 1989.
• AutoCAD is used in industry by City and Urban Planners,
Architects, Surveyors, Project Managers, Engineers, Graphic
Designers, and many other Professionals

7. Cont.
AutoCAD as it is popularly called, it has more
than 150 tools used to accurately produce a
perfect drafting.

8. Cont.
Some of the tools includes:
• Line
• Polyline
• Chamfer
• Fillet
• Extend
• Copy
• Move
• Arc
• Colour by layer
• Mirror
• Trim
• Circle
• Hatch (Tinting)
• Rotate
• Join
and many more.

11. SITE INSPECTION
Site inspection can be defined as an investigation or search for
materials, information or data made in the field/environment as in
order to make provision for alternative plans
In addition, site inspection and field work is all about getting out to
the real world and interacting with people and the environment.
Field work is a scientific approach of data collection and hypothesis
testing.

13. STATISTICAL DATAANALYSIS
Data is a collection of facts, such as numbers, words,
measurements, observations or even just descriptions of
things.

14. Cont.
• Data analysis is the process of extracting information from data.
• It involves multiple stages including establishing a data set,
preparing the data for processing, applying models, identifying
key findings and creating reports and conclusion to solve a
particular problem.
• The goal of data analysis is to find actionable insights that can
inform decision making.

15. TYPES OF DATA
 Qualitative data
• It is descriptive information (it describes something)
 Quantitative data
• It is numerical information (numbers)

16. Cont.
For statistical analysis, there are hundreds of software
applications that can be used to analyze data, but for the
purpose of this industrial training, I was exposed to two
software applications which are independable. These are
1. Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS)
2. Microsoft Office (Excel Package)

17. Statistical Package for Social Sciences
• It is popularly called SPSS
• It is of functions for manipulating, analyzing and presenting data
• The package is widely used in the Social and Behavioural Sciences,
as well as Environmental Sciences/Technology.
• No research can be carried out in Social, Environmental and
Behavioural Sciences can be done without Data analysis, because it
is believed that Data is the backbone of any research.

18. Cont.
The SPSS is capable of analyzing varieties of statistical
data and present them in a way that such data can be
studied to solve the problem of which the data is
intended to tackle.
SPSS at the level of this industrial training was limited to
the coding of variables, input of data codes and
generation of frequency distribution tables and charts
(pie, bar, line etc.) which are one of the core functions of
the software application.

19. Cont
As part of the ways to fully understand the software, I was
made under little but strict supervision to code 1400
questionnaires of 29 variables, thereafter, I generated the
frequency distribution tables, bar chart, pie chart, histogram
and other data graphic representatives.

20. Aside from the taught and learnt skills, SPSS is
capable of the following
• Solving Chi – Square
• T – Testing
• Analysis of Variance
• Forecasting
• Correlation
• Neural Networking
• Regression Analysis
and many more.

23. Microsoft Office (Excel Package)
• Microsoft Excel is one of the top tools for data analysis and the built-in
pivot tables are arguably the most popular analytic tool.
• It is a spreadsheet developed by Microsoft for Windows, Android and
iOS.
• Microsoft Excel has the basic features of all spreadsheets, using a grid of
cells arranged in numbered rows and letter-named columns to organize
data manipulations like arithmetic operations
• It can display data as line graphs, histograms and charts, and with a very
limited three-dimensional graphical display.

26. Garmin Geographical Positioning System Device
By receiving these signals from the satellites, a Garmin GPS is
able to calculate your exact location on the planet. It records
this location in coordinates, which are two long numbers. One
number tells you how far East or West you are – this is called
longitude. The second number tells you how far North or South
you are – this is called latitude.
Every place on Earth has unique geographic coordinates which
may otherwise be called geographically reference location.
The GPS device is capable of determining your land elevation,
latitude, longitude and many more.
A Garmin GPS is like a mobile phone, except that instead of
receiving radio signals from telephone companies, it receives
signals from satellites that are going around the Earth.

27. For example:
7°43’32”N Latitude, 5° 15’37”E Longitude is a location close to a secondary
school in Iworoko - Ekiti, Nigeria.
7°50’43”N Latitude, 5° 11’17”E Longitude is a location close to a FMC in Ido -
Ekiti, Nigeria.
Before you turn on your GPS, go outside where you have a
clear view of the sky. Because the GPS determines your
location by receiving signals from satellites, it won’t work
indoors.
On the right side of your GPS, press and hold the Power button
for like 3 seconds. The GPS will start, and it will show you the
Satellites page. When it has connected to three or more
satellites, then the GPS would determine your location.
Then place the device on a flat or stable surface, the device
would automatically detect your latitude and longitude, as well
as the land elevation.

28. SITE ANALYSIS REPORT
This is a document designed by Town Planners Registration
Council (TOPREC). This form gives information on the proposed
development in relation to its environment. It contains information
such as nearness to public facilities, setbacks, the block number
and other relevant information.
It must be filled and signed by a qualified and registered Town
Planner. It must also be stamped. This document is submitted along
with the application and legally backed up by Degree No 3 of
1988.
