Spike Lee has seat upwards a large release of his movies inwards his dwelling identify metropolis of New York. Red Bull are celebrating this fact alongside an interactive strip map, New York Through the Lens of Spike Lee, which looks at some of the locations some the Big Apple where the manager has shot scenes for his movies.
The map non entirely allows y'all to notice locations which characteristic inwards Spike Lee's movies but too lets y'all persuasion the relevant clips from the films straight from the map. The map too includes an animated polyline together with map labels which betoken which Spike Lee films were shot at those locations.
The map uses an effective navigation device which requires the user to exactly scroll downward the web-page. As y'all scroll y'all are taken on a linear northward to due south journeying through Spike Lee's New York. This method of map navigation plant good when y'all entirely cause got a linear path to plot on your map.
On my monitor in that place is a slight work alongside the Spike Lee map when the plotted path makes a westward to E detour through northward Brooklyn. At this dot the path disappears off the peak of the screen. However y'all tin nevertheless scroll back-up on the map to select the markers inwards northward Brooklyn.
This method of linear scrolling on a map owes a lot to the traditional strip map. It is a footling surprising that nosotros don't run into to a greater extent than interactive strip maps on the internet. The browser, alongside its oftentimes linear scrolling method of navigation, seems to lend itself rather good to the strip map format. However interactive strip maps on the spider web seem to hold out few together with far between.
Propublica is i of my favorite examples of an interactive map which makes role of this linear scrolling method mutual to traditional strip maps. Killing the Colorado takes y'all on a journeying downward the Colorado river, exploring how human is engineering the travel of this i time keen river.
As y'all scroll downward the page y'all follow the course of teaching of the river overlaid on a satellite view. On your journeying downward the river data windows opened upwards highlighting some of the H2O projects that are draining H2O from the river.
The Propublica map owes a lot of its inspiration to the New York Times' Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 Rogue State Along Two Rivers. A Rogue State Along Two Rivers explores the rising of ISIS past times next the paths of the Tigris together with Euphrates Rivers. The interactive even stitches together a serial of aerial images of both rivers to create a strip map which y'all navigate past times scrolling downward the page.
