It is a disgrace that nine years later the liberate of Google Maps, Google yet haven't managed to properly map i of America's most loved towns. Luckily where e'er Google fails Esri comes to the rescue.
Look upward Springfield on Playgis together with yous volition honor a gloriously detailed map of this most famous of American towns. From the world's outset e'er Kwik-E-Mart to Springfield Elementary School, this Spingfield map has it all. You tin fifty-fifty role the map to await upward the address of private families, for instance the Simpsons menage unit of measurement at 742 Evergreen Terrace.
Although Google Maps doesn't yet encompass Springfield it does accept Street View. Thanks to Amplifon nosotros also forthwith accept a neat library to add together audio to Street View panoramas.
Last calendar month Amplifon created Sounds of Street View, a novel platform which allows yous to add together audio to Google Maps Street View. If yous see Sounds of Street View Create Your Own you tin download the Sounds of Street View framework together with read a detailed lead explaining how to practise your ain Street View alongside audio experience.
Zombie Sound Experienz uses the Business Photos Street View tour from the Zombie Manor inward Drayton alongside the Amplifon library to practise a creepy virtual tour, alongside amount 3d sound. The custom Street View tour was created for Drayton Manor past times 360 Agency, who also created the Street View tour of Diagon Alley for the Warner Bros. Studio Tour.
As yous progress through this zombie filled virtual Street View tour yous tin forthwith truly ask heed the zombies pursuing you.
As yous see the unlike rooms inward the Zombie Manor yous volition ask heed a diverseness of creepy sounds. Different zombies together with rooms accept unlike sounds attached to them, which larn louder or quieter every bit yous approach or move away from them.
As good every bit a Simpsons' map together with a creepy Zombie Street View tour nosotros also saw to a greater extent than or less peachy serious maps this week. I particularly liked the Urban Institute's map showing where minorities inward the USA are beingness priced out of the housing market.
Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 New View of the Housing Boom together with Bust plots 100 meg mortgages from 2000 to 2012 across the United States. The map shows each owner-occupied mortgage origination for twelve years, inward which the borrower’s race together with ethnicity were fully recorded. Zoom inward on merely almost whatsoever metropolis on this map together with yous tin encounter a clear pattern of African American together with Hispanic households beingness disproportionately affected past times constrained mortgage lending.
Another map which caught my middle this calendar week was Infoamazonia's Visaguas, which examines the availability of build clean drinking H2O & sewage inward Amazon municipalities together with the incident rates of a lay out of diseases caused past times pitiable H2O & sewage infrastructure.
If yous role the tabs, higher upward the map, yous tin choose to sentiment Water Supply, Diseases or Access to Sewage on the map. When yous choose either of the 3 primary categories yous tin thence choose from a lay out of subcategories. For example, if yous choose diseases yous tin sentiment the incident rates, per municipality, for a lay out of unlike diseases, including Cholera, Dengue Fever together with Typhoid.
