Improving The Tiled Grid Map


In the final United Kingdom of Great Britain in addition to Northern Ireland of Britain in addition to Northern Republic of Ireland full general election the biggest winner inward information visualization techniques was the tiled grid map. The NPR Visuals Team has written a adept explanation of why (and where) the tiled grid map is a adept option for visualizing geographical data.


Recently at that spot has been about interesting developments inward tiled grid maps - specifically inward using private grids to visualize historical data. For example, later the Scottish Election inward May, The Guardian used Sankey diagrams inward each tiled grid to demo the historical pct of votes past times each political political party over previous elections inward each electoral district.


Esri has likewise been experimenting alongside using dissimilar types of charts in addition to graphs inside private tiled map grids to visualize U.S. election history data. US Election History is an interactive tiled grid map which visualizes the historical voting designing of each reason inward a release of dissimilar ways.

My favorite stance inward this tiled grid map is the Waffle Grid, which presents the historical election information inward each reason alongside a serial of pocket-size colored squares. Each foursquare is colored cherry or blueish to demo how the reason voted inward previous U.S.A. elections.

This waffle grid stance provides a dandy in addition to uncomplicated visualization of the historical political style of each state. With the around recent election results shown at the elevation in addition to the oldest elections at the bottom of each foursquare it is likewise really tardily to read the around recent historical voting style inward each state.
