Overview:
Choropleth maps are the most common type of quantitative thematic map. Data on many topics are commonly captured as area-level variables, and these data are most commonly mapped in a choropleth style. In particular, census data is collected for many different types of enumeration areas and is thus generally well suited to choropleth mapping. In this lab, you will map several census variables for Vancouver dissemination areas, using ArcMap. Create a choropleth map of the City of Vancouver using census data from 2016.The target audience for my map is a Vancouver Global Exchange company partnered with France to find students hosts homes with English and French speaking hosts in Vancouver.
Objectives:
- Download and use census data in ArcGIS
- Learn how to standardize raw data
- Understand classification
