40 maps to change how you see the world
« on: September 05, 2013, 07:24:54 pm »
Hi All!

I've always enjoyed maps and info-graphics, and use them often to research a tour or learn more about an area.

I recently came across a collection of 40 GIS representations in map form and found them interesting, though many are American-centric in their comparisons. They really did get me to thinking a bit differently about our world...

Best,
