Final Project

For this Final Project, we were to create two high quality maps to the best of our ability. Over the semester the class discussed several mapping techniques that could be used for these final maps, such as choropleth mapping, dot mapping, isarithmic mapping, and proportional symbol mapping. The first map I Created was a Qualitative map, where different hues are used to represent different qualities of the data. This map satisfies the portrait orientation and the inset map requirements. For the second map, a bivariate mapping technique was used, where two different techniques are shown. This bivariate map is basically a standardized choropleth map (satisfying the classified requirement) with a graduated symbol map on top of it.
