Session Goals
• Demonstrate cartographic thinking in action • Instill confidence to think cartographically
![Page 3: Map Makeovers for Online Maps · Oversimplified views of audiences • Reading Level: -College educated and enjoys big words and sentences -Educated, but prefers coffee table books](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081523/5fd2fcf2ac2be047a31a43a4/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Cartographic Thinking Includes
• Geographically informed rationale for communicating
• Creative Minimalist Design Intent • Communicating through graphics • Ensuring readability for your map’s intended readers • Good Sensible Judgment (in the opinion of others) • Forced and blatant objectivity • Clarity
But “cartography” is a cumbersome word…
![Page 4: Map Makeovers for Online Maps · Oversimplified views of audiences • Reading Level: -College educated and enjoys big words and sentences -Educated, but prefers coffee table books](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081523/5fd2fcf2ac2be047a31a43a4/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
your map should tell a story that your audience can interpret
and relate to
Basically,
![Page 5: Map Makeovers for Online Maps · Oversimplified views of audiences • Reading Level: -College educated and enjoys big words and sentences -Educated, but prefers coffee table books](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081523/5fd2fcf2ac2be047a31a43a4/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Communication first!
• A web map must work… overtly if necessary • Most things worth communicating need to be
tailored with clarity of purpose and: - Effort… lots of effort & iterations - Inspiration… rarely there when you need it - Experience… speed and confidence
• Strive for self-evidence in communication - Water is blue - Trees are green - Full spectrum color ramps for “heat maps”? Really…
![Page 6: Map Makeovers for Online Maps · Oversimplified views of audiences • Reading Level: -College educated and enjoys big words and sentences -Educated, but prefers coffee table books](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081523/5fd2fcf2ac2be047a31a43a4/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Oversimplified views of audiences
• Reading Level: - College educated and enjoys big words and sentences - Educated, but prefers coffee table books and magazines - Not so educated, and doesn’t care unless the pictures are
great—Loved TV and thinks the Internet finally got value when Hulu came out
• Age and Responsibility - People who vote regularly or would if the place live had
elections - People with jobs who sustain at least one family or
household - 10-year-olds

SSURGO Data Tool: Before I
![Page 9: Map Makeovers for Online Maps · Oversimplified views of audiences • Reading Level: -College educated and enjoys big words and sentences -Educated, but prefers coffee table books](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081523/5fd2fcf2ac2be047a31a43a4/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
SSURGO Data Tool: Before II

What was wrong with that?
• Focused on the “What” not the user or why they need it. • Author-centric perspective • Thumbnail looks muddy • Hyperlinks not provided for URLs
- URLs linked to the home page for the dataset, not the help as promised.
• Title = 2 Generic Terms + a Proper Noun Acronym • Pop-up doesn’t tell you what’s going to happen if you
click Download. • Description: Language is passive voice, “…The data can
be retrieved as Map Packages for individual hydrologic subbasins by clicking on a subbasin and clicking the download link in the pop-up window.”

U.S. Offshore Wind Velocity: Before I

U.S. Offshore Wind Velocity: Before II
![Page 15: Map Makeovers for Online Maps · Oversimplified views of audiences • Reading Level: -College educated and enjoys big words and sentences -Educated, but prefers coffee table books](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081523/5fd2fcf2ac2be047a31a43a4/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
What was wrong with that?
• The title is technically correct, but fails to engage a user • The, “Why does someone need this map?” is very weak
because using the map doesn’t actually help them learn what the map description’s stated task is
• The Pop-up is not useful or informative • The reader must be very knowledgeable about wind
velocity as a factor in generating energy • The “What” this map is, is fraught with assumptions • The credits are weak, i.e., what is NREL?

your map should tell a story (not just throw data out there) that your audience
(have one in mind) can interpret (the story is clear) and relate to
(especially if the subject is unfamiliar)
![Page 24: Map Makeovers for Online Maps · Oversimplified views of audiences • Reading Level: -College educated and enjoys big words and sentences -Educated, but prefers coffee table books](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081523/5fd2fcf2ac2be047a31a43a4/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Like fire, a good web map needs three things to ignite
• A good story idea - Is there data?
• Good, clear maps - Information product, or data dump? - Is additional analysis needed? - What else do I need in the
database?
• Data - We have this data,
what does it tell us?
![Page 25: Map Makeovers for Online Maps · Oversimplified views of audiences • Reading Level: -College educated and enjoys big words and sentences -Educated, but prefers coffee table books](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081523/5fd2fcf2ac2be047a31a43a4/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Tell a story from CDC’s obesity and diabetes data
• Our map in 2010
• Updated, made more intelligent, with its story articulated …
• … and placed in a template capable of telling that story
![Page 26: Map Makeovers for Online Maps · Oversimplified views of audiences • Reading Level: -College educated and enjoys big words and sentences -Educated, but prefers coffee table books](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081523/5fd2fcf2ac2be047a31a43a4/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Another story from CDC’s obesity and diabetes data
• Our map in 2010
• Updated, made more intelligent, with its story articulated …
• … and placed in a template capable of telling that story
![Page 27: Map Makeovers for Online Maps · Oversimplified views of audiences • Reading Level: -College educated and enjoys big words and sentences -Educated, but prefers coffee table books](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081523/5fd2fcf2ac2be047a31a43a4/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Web maps for the public
• Assume the reader - knows where they live and work - does not know your story - wants the data in a context
• Build a web map that:
- is focused - is clear - rewards curiosity - dovetails with a story or narrative - moves a conversation forward
![Page 28: Map Makeovers for Online Maps · Oversimplified views of audiences • Reading Level: -College educated and enjoys big words and sentences -Educated, but prefers coffee table books](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081523/5fd2fcf2ac2be047a31a43a4/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Example: statistical web maps
• Consistency helps your reader • Examine the data • Set break points, label them • Apply color palettes, style file • Document descriptions, tags, credits • Follow a checklist • Publish as service • Create a popup • Share the web map in an app
![Page 29: Map Makeovers for Online Maps · Oversimplified views of audiences • Reading Level: -College educated and enjoys big words and sentences -Educated, but prefers coffee table books](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081523/5fd2fcf2ac2be047a31a43a4/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Mapping Diversity example • Look at the data
• “anchor” classes in something meaningful (e.g. national average – find the story in the data)
• Use color palettes, style files
• Use consistent breaks and colors
• Words & numbers in class labels
• Simple, clear popup in plain language
• Make a multi-scale web map
![Page 30: Map Makeovers for Online Maps · Oversimplified views of audiences • Reading Level: -College educated and enjoys big words and sentences -Educated, but prefers coffee table books](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081523/5fd2fcf2ac2be047a31a43a4/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
![Page 31: Map Makeovers for Online Maps · Oversimplified views of audiences • Reading Level: -College educated and enjoys big words and sentences -Educated, but prefers coffee table books](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081523/5fd2fcf2ac2be047a31a43a4/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Obesity Map example
• At what scales does this data work well?
• How granular is the data?
• Does that granularity show well at this scale?
• Is it a map of data, or a map that clearly supports key point(s) in the story?
![Page 32: Map Makeovers for Online Maps · Oversimplified views of audiences • Reading Level: -College educated and enjoys big words and sentences -Educated, but prefers coffee table books](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081523/5fd2fcf2ac2be047a31a43a4/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Obesity Map example
• Popups that list data are less friendly than popups that form a sentence.
• Ask: how would I explain this table of data to someone? Your answer is what to put into your popup.
![Page 33: Map Makeovers for Online Maps · Oversimplified views of audiences • Reading Level: -College educated and enjoys big words and sentences -Educated, but prefers coffee table books](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081523/5fd2fcf2ac2be047a31a43a4/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Population Growth example
![Page 34: Map Makeovers for Online Maps · Oversimplified views of audiences • Reading Level: -College educated and enjoys big words and sentences -Educated, but prefers coffee table books](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081523/5fd2fcf2ac2be047a31a43a4/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Population Growth example
• Polygon choropleth map treats all areas as equals
• Dot map of same data at different geography level shows density as well as pattern
• Use an invisible layer as a popup layer
![Page 35: Map Makeovers for Online Maps · Oversimplified views of audiences • Reading Level: -College educated and enjoys big words and sentences -Educated, but prefers coffee table books](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081523/5fd2fcf2ac2be047a31a43a4/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Potential College Students example
![Page 36: Map Makeovers for Online Maps · Oversimplified views of audiences • Reading Level: -College educated and enjoys big words and sentences -Educated, but prefers coffee table books](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081523/5fd2fcf2ac2be047a31a43a4/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Potential College Students example
• Again, polygon choropleth map treats all areas as equals
• Uses a black mask to help visualize urban/suburban areas
• Clean, easy to read popup.
![Page 37: Map Makeovers for Online Maps · Oversimplified views of audiences • Reading Level: -College educated and enjoys big words and sentences -Educated, but prefers coffee table books](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081523/5fd2fcf2ac2be047a31a43a4/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Signs your web map needs a makeover
• When you ask someone “what does this map tell you?” you don’t get the answer you want.
• You haven’t stated, out loud, who your audience is • There is no indication where to start • More buttons & tools onscreen than map features • Your splash screen becomes the first page of your online
help, to explain how to use the map and its many tools • The popups are data dumps, not information • You let the user see field names like POP75 rather than
aliases like “Population over 75 years old” • It is not a multi-scale map • It uses defaults for nearly everything – symbology,
labels, popups, field names
![Page 38: Map Makeovers for Online Maps · Oversimplified views of audiences • Reading Level: -College educated and enjoys big words and sentences -Educated, but prefers coffee table books](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081523/5fd2fcf2ac2be047a31a43a4/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
