Homework due Monday, Oct. 24 (11:59 pm)

Make a choropleth or heat map in QGIS or ArcGIS Online using the project file you’ve been working on. If you do not have statistics to include in relation to your places, think of a yes/no question to encode and map in a choropleth fashion.

Use the same data to create a Tableau Visualization.

Post a discussion of the process with screenshots of the map and embed the Tableau Visualization as a blog on your site.
