dot distribution map


This is an example of a dot distribution map. http://www.wisconline.com/It shows census data of Milwaukee county from 1990. According to the website each dot on the map represents 50 people. The map shows a density of people living near the urban areas. As you view the map of the norteast and southern parts of the county the population is spread out revealing the suburban area. This map was used for protection of natural resources and the stress of population on the environment
