Week 11 - Flow Line Mapping

GIS 3015

 

This week we worked with Adobe Illustrator to create and show content with Flow Lines.  Above is the 2007 Immigration Statistics from the Department of Homeland Security.  This map is intended to show the flow of immigrants into the U.S. as well as report the percent of total immigrants per state, utilizing a choropleth map of the United States. 

This week we also looked at Effects.  Above we can see in the map the utilization of Drop Shadows, Inner Glow Effects, as well as 3D Extrude and Bevel Effects.  Overall this was a fun project and I would welcome more time to work with the effects to become better at them.
