The Choropleth Maps use colors on the basis of a one-to-one mapping between the statistics and the color code intensity. The various shades and intensities of colors then depict the distribution if statistics within geography.
Choropleth Maps :
- It is a type of data representation in the form of colors on a map using the concept of theming.
- It represents divided geographical areas on a map using differentiating shades of colors.
- The intensity of the color shade is a result of a Color-Gradient function which is a function of a statistical value to display on the map.
- Ex. For a Map of Population Density: the more the density, the greater the shade of color and vice versa.
Usage of Colors in Choropleth Maps :
- There is a function mapping between the statistical value to represent and the corresponding color shade intensity to show.
- Darker or heavier shades have high intensity and denote greater statistical value in that area.
- Lighter shades have low intensity and denote lesser statistical value in that geographic area.
- The two geographies are distinct as both have different corresponding color intensities to show and thus boundaries can be depicted.
