GIS - 2025 NAFTA - Buzzpoints

Packet 6: Bonus 16

You would like to create a thematic map of Wood Buffalo National Park in order to visualize nesting density of the endangered whooping crane. Answer some questions about your next steps, for 10 points each.

[10e] You start by creating a basemap in one of these cartographic systems. Esri maintains a software that prefixes “Arc-” to this three-letter initialism.

ANSWER: GIS [accept geographic information systems; accept ArcGIS]

[10m] You shade the pseudocolor of park regions by nest density, thereby creating one of these maps. These maps, which unlike heat maps use preselected areas, are named from the Greek for “region” and “multitude.”

ANSWER: choropleth map

[10h] Lastly, you give your choropleth map one of the color palettes devised by this author of Designing Better Maps. An open source map palette tool appends the surname of this Penn State cartographer to the word “color.”

ANSWER: Cynthia Brewer [accept ColorBrewer]
