A choropleth map (from Ancient Greek χῶρος (khôros) 'area, region' and πλῆθος (plêthos) 'multitude') is a type of statistical thematic map that uses pseudocolor, meaning color corresponding with an aggregate summary of a geographic characteristic within spatial enumeration units, such as population density or per-capita income.
Gradient maps (scientific name: Choropleth) are a light and basic visualisation of spacial areas and their associated values for a single thematic issue, by example the population density by country. Gradient maps need 3 key things: 1. a solidly sourced list of regions⇔values for one issue, 2. a map displaying these regions, 3. a sequential ...
The choropleth map provides an easy way to visualize how a measurement varies across a geographic area or it shows the level of variability within a region. In addition to choropleth maps, a cartographer should strive to depict colors effectively on any kind of map. Displaying the data in different hues can greatly affect the understanding or ...
A chorochromatic map is a visualization of regions, with a nominal (qualitative) difference between them. In many cases, these regions are distinct established entities; for example, a map of land administration in the United States would include features such as national and state parks.
feature: which geographic objects should be displayed (corresponds in the map data to the name of the field under the objects field). The default is value countries. ids of geographic entities: The actual parameter names depend on the base map and the selected feature. For example, for the above mentioned world map the ids are ISO country codes.
The dataset should be stored at Wikimedia commons, in the Data namespace, as a tabular data (.tab) file. Currently, the file format should be JSON, representing a three column table, where the first column is the three-letter ISO country code, the second is the year and the third is the value.
A bivariate map or multivariate map is a type of thematic map that displays two or more variables on a single map by combining different sets of symbols. [1] Each of the variables is represented using a standard thematic map technique, such as choropleth , cartogram , or proportional symbols .
