Week 3 - Cartography
GIS 4043 L



Population of Mexican States - The map above highlights the different states of Mexico and identifies the estimated population of each state.


Central Mexico: Transportation and Urban Areas - In this map I identified all the major and primary rivers found throughout Central Mexico.  Also identified are the federal roadways and rail lines.  This map also highlights the urban areas found throughout Central Mexico.  The inset was added to allow the reader to orient themselves to the location that is the focus.


Mexico: Elevations - This map utilized stretched symbology to highlight the elevations of Mexico.  A Digital Elevation Model was used to show the elevations.  Modifying the DEM symbology allowed me to display the elevation in an appealing manner.
