However, I have been thinking quite a bit about what I would like my final map to look like, and am considering using simpler base map to add the sustainability points to. I think this would be a good improvement to the project as much of the landscape on the previous base map adds distractions and may become too congested when features, such as water bottle fill stations, are added. I found a PDF of Siena's Campus to use as a reference for this post, but am intending to adapt/find/create a similar base map for my project. I believe this will be an improvement, especially for the interactive online map, as it will be more modern and accessible to a wider audience.
Potential difficulties for this week include (once again) finding a way to make sure specific data points are accurate enough to be useful on the map as well as finalizing a new base map for the project.
Ashley,
ReplyDeleteI think that that would be an awesome basemap to base your map off of. I like the colors and I think that they make each of the features stick out pretty well. I do think that it might be a lot to include all of your points along with these points though. I also am very excited to see what you do to make this map interactive! I wonder if you could use this map and place points on the map without taking the coordinates, or were you planning on georeferencing your basemap picture?
