Final Project Blog




For my course project, I created a dot map showing deaths in the video game Counter-Strike: Source, and a choropleth map of Bigfoot Sightings in Idaho. The Counter-Strike map is similar to a heatmap showing the densities of deaths on the level de_dust. A friend and I collected the data ourselves (about 90 games worth) and I created the map using Gimp. The Bigfoot sightings map shows Bigfoot sightings by county. I got the data from the Bigfoot Field Researcher’s Organization, and created the map using ArcMap.
