I have made a map composed of the population densities of each of the counties in the state of California. I used a graduated color scale to show the differing densities. A lighter color indicates a lower population density while a dark color represents a higher population density. I know that I should include the county labels on the map, but there is some overlapping so I am having some trouble figuring out how to solve this problem so that the labels of the counties are visible but do not make my map look too crowded. My next step is going to be working on importing my asthma data, and this may mean settling for emergency room visits of asthma related cases rather than actual numbers of asthma cases per county as I am having trouble finding the specific information I am looking for.

It looks great! One suggestion I have is to maybe change the color of your map? Since your project has to do with air, maybe make it a blue color?
ReplyDeleteI agree with Maggie! A nice blue would really help get the point across that you're focusing on air quality (when you add that in!) Looking good!
