Final Project Map

A bivariate map using two thematic mapping styles to show two separate sets of data. The choropleth map illustrates the percentages of ACT composite scores within the United States while the proportional symbols (circles) portray the percentage of total graduates tested in each state.

Lab 10: Google Earth (Wind Farms)

I chose this area of Lake Huron based on local buoy information that gave adequate average wind speed for the site as well as depth of water for site location. It is more than six miles off shore, therefore the viewshed will not be impacted as well as the migratory bird patterns. I am guessing that Google Earth professional would make it a lot easier to export your final map into a JPEG and manipulate it, but for a quick and dirty one the free version of GE does just fine.
