Modifying Leaflet Choropleth Map

March 10, 2016March 14, 2016Stacy Lam

For this data visualization, the interactive choropleth map represents the US Population Density. What makes this map unique is that the user can hover over any state and get additional information, unlike Google Fusion where the user needs to click on the state to get information. From GitHub, I have modified the leaflet code by manipulating the height & width of the map, changing the color of the border outline to black when the user hovers over the state, and the width of the border boundaries. An interactive choropleth map is a useful visualization for Police Data and this allows me to be one step closer to creating a data visualization that tells a story of intimate partner violence.

Modifying Leaflet Map Code

My data visualization is a map, which is still in progress, about the number of adult served by my community partner, the Capital Workforce Partners. By modifying the code from the sample project of Professor Dougherty, the instructor of the class, I created a Leaflet map of 37 towns served by Capital Workforce Partners. The number of people served is shown in the information box in the top right corner when the user hovers the mouse on the map. When a region is clicked on, a small information window with a link to the town profile pops up or it will directly go to the town profile. This feature is subjected to change.

This a layer to our HFS map which is still in progress. Each different color represents each Food Class, and when someone clicks on a point it shows the name, address, and food establishment type.

In this data visualization, I’m showing the statistics of the US unemployment Rate and CT unemployment Rate from 1982-2014. If you look at it, the US unemployment rate tends to be higher than the CT unemployment Rate. However by 2009, the recession began and many states were affected. Connecticut was one of the states that was impacted by it the most and its rate was slightly higher than the national average.
