The maps for this weeks
lab show two different Choropleth Maps. The first map depicts a
choropleth map with an appropriate color scheme depicting the
population change by state in the United States between 1990-2000.
One very helpful lesson I learned in this is how to change the data
values (in this case the change in population growth values) to an
more appropriate rounded number.
In the second map we
averaged the population growth by region and used our own method to
define classes. Because of the outliers I chose the natural breaks
method to show more variation around the mean. I also manually drew a
line in Adobe Illustrator to separate regions with the same color
class value.
