5 best maps from the blog

5 Great Maps from the Blog

I have looked at all the profiles of my classmates on the blog, and I must admit – I admire Alan’s work. I really like several of his maps, but I would like to highlight 2 of them.

The map is nicely done; I just like looking at it! Colors are wisely selected and the legend looks well-thought and organized. The background is light grey, which highlight green (I would have never thought of it!). Just a well done map!

This map is has a creative symbol, which is easy to read and to understand! Nice gradient!

I really like Leanna’s bivareate map, I think she accomplished the goal to represent to different variables with as lot of creativity! One can easy identify 2 different representations on the map!

This map is very unusual! It is an interesting layout and attracts the attention!
