Statistical maps display distance data according to mathematical definitions of space and distance. This statistical map illustrates the spread of Internet throughout the world according to a census taken in 1997. The map explains that most of the world has Internet connectivity except for a few countries, which are in yellow.

Nominal choropleth maps are a way to display qualitative data by classifying it into groups. Quanitative values are not used. This specific map illustrates minority groups in the United States by use of color. According to this map, the hispanic race is the most dominant minority group in America.

Continuously Graded Proportional Circle Map

Continuously graded proportional circle maps are a type of point pattern map that uses circle to represent numeric data. Unlike range graded circle maps, continuously graded circle maps, the circles come in all sizes. The larger the circle, the larger the numerical value, and the small the circle, the smaller the numerical value. In this specific circle map, the Hispanic population is represented in the United States. According to the size of the circles, it appears that California has the largest amount of people of the Hispanic race in that state.

Dot Density Map

Dot density maps are a type of point pattern map that use dots to represent a certain numerical value. Unlike, continuously graded and range-graded proportional maps, in dot density maps the dots do not vary in size. In this specific dot density map, the hispanic population is represented in the United States. One dot represents 100,000 people of the Hispanic race. It looks as if California, Texas, and Florida have the largest Hispanic population.

Cartographic animations are created so that the viewer can visualize movement and gradual progression of specific data being analyzed. In this cartographic animation, the viewer can see the gradual changes month to month due to the effects of net long-wave radiation. There is a legend below that depicts by color the intensity of the effects--blue being the lowest and red being the highest.

A climograph is a graph that illustrates monthly precipitation and temperature conditions for a specific place. This climograph shows the monthly precipitation of Arizona by the bar graph and the temperature condionts by the line graph. It seems that in July and August precipiation and temperature conditions are very high.

A population profile is a chart that shows trends of population statistics over time and depicts the data by age. As you can see on this chart, it represents the growing popuulation for Mobile County in 1998. It seems that the male and female population growth from ages 35-44 is nearly identical and it seems to thin out equally as the age groups increase.

Cartogram

Cartograms depict a certain thematic subject, however that thematic subject is represented by land area. For example, this map depicts the votes for the 2004 U.S. Presidential election. The map of the United States is reshaped to illustrate each state's votes.

Flow maps illustrate the movement and transportation of people or goods from one place to another. This maps shows the total combined truck flows in 1998 by using red curved lines. The thicker lines represent more traffic flow and the thinner lines represent less traffic flow. According to this map, Texas has the highest flow of traffic going out.

An isoline map is a map with continuous lines joining at points of the same value. They show three dimensional figures in two dimensional form by using contour lines. Some examples of isoline maps are isotachs, isobars, and isopleths etc. This map illustrates Jamestown and shows that it is close to a body of water which is shown by the circular contour lines.

Propoganda Map

Propoganda maps are used by the government to help influence or project a certain idea to the public. Propaganda maps can be very powerful in the act of influencing a certain prospect. This propoganda map shows the world as Ronald Reagan portrayed to Americans. This map gives the idea that Americans thought that President Reagan was very greedy and possessive when it came to the rest of the world.

A thematic map is a map that displays physical area, but represents some other type of theme, such as cultural, social, economic, political etc. This thematic map is representative of the median family income in the United States during 2006. The lighter greens represent the state's with a lower income and the darker greens represent the state's with a higher income. Hawaii, Alaska, and the upper eastern states near Massachusetts are the states with the highest income in America according to this map.

A topographic map is a type of map that is characterized by large-scale detail and quantitative representation of relief, usually using contour lines. Topographic maps show not only contours but also some streams, forestry, and built-up areas. This is an example of a topographic map that shows rivers and hills and other topography using contour lines.
