Boxing Day Tsunami (Lab 10)

This lab shows the devastation of the tsunami produced by a big earthquake in December, 2004. Almost a quarter of a million people were killed.. One of these satellite images were taken in June 23, 2004 and the other, following the tsunami, in December 28, 2004. The lab itself was interesting, Photoshop is a great tool.

Cartogram



I LOVE this cartogram. The shapes of countries respresent the amount of internet users in the world. What I really like about it is how they used country flags inside the countries. The map is visually very nice!

Lab 9

Here is my Lab #9. Why on earth is Sandy Creek parking lot located in Boulder, Colorado? :-D I really have no idea how it ended up there and there didn't seem to be a way to move it around either.

This was a fun lab, the drawing part was easy and I can see how it could get really challenging if you were to draw something in more detail.

Lab 8

Here is my lab8. It was fun to make! I especially liked the last part where you could overlay a map over the globe.
