This calendar week I was impressed past times a pair of maps that repackaged previously mapped visualizations.
First-up - Esri has created a bear witness map using Windy-JS. Wind Animation allows you lot to sentiment global air current conditions animated on a slippy map. I'm certain you lot stimulate got all seen earth.nullschool.net's gorgeous animated globe visualizing conditions conditions closed to the world.
Esri has forthwith taken the same conditions information from the Global Forecast System used inwards the map in addition to created Windy-JS. Two Windy-JS re-purposes the conditions information hence that it tin survive overlaid inwards a canvass chemical gene on superlative of a variety of mapping APIs.
The Racial Dot Map was i of my favorite Google Maps of final year. It is forthwith too possible to sentiment the same information overlaid on an OpenStreetMap.
The Racial Dot Map is a fascinating visualization of the geographic distribution, population density, in addition to racial multifariousness of the USA. The map uses information from the 2010 U.S.A. of America census, alongside each of the 308,745,538 dots representing the place of i American.
If you lot prefer your underlying map to survive open-sourced in addition to hence you lot tin forthwith sentiment the information on a Leaflet.js OpenStreetMap, called the Racial Dotmap Site.
Now on to some novel maps. The WWF Species Tracker is a Google Map dedicated to tracking the movements of a set out of animals closed to the world. The map includes the tracks of a set out of polar bears, marine turtles, yellowfin tuna, bowhead whales, jaguars in addition to a narwahl whale.
You tin select each private fauna on the map in addition to non exclusively sentiment the animal's movements exactly read a mag of the animal's drive in addition to demeanour over the final few months. Each rails includes fourth dimension stamps along its path, allowing you lot to run across when it passed through each location, in addition to a set out of 'information' markers providing analysis of the animal's progress.
The Transit Map of San Francisco MTA is a real-time mistaken map of San Francisco's bus, streetcar, in addition to subway services, based on the MTA timetables. The map animates the movements of the city's buses, streetcars in addition to subway trains on a Google Map.
The vehicle movements on the map are determined past times the timetables provided inwards the GTFS dataset of the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency. The map plant past times plugging the city's GTFS dataset into Vasile Cotovanu's Transit Map library.
Vasile has too released the code for the GTFS plug-in equally well. The code converts a set upward of GTFS files into a SQLite database in addition to the GeoJSONs needed past times the Transit Map library. So if you lot desire to practise your ain mistaken animated map of a city's transit network all you lot postulate to practise is to choose handgrip of the city's GTFS dataset, use GTFS-viz to practise the database in addition to GeoJSON's in addition to and hence plug the information into the Transit Map library. Voila you lot stimulate got your really ain animated mistaken transit map.
