Some inspiration

We are all working on concepts to show the route through Delft. Because of that I think this would be a good time for some inspirational pictures of interesting maps.

This map shows how a group of people is connected, who knows who.




This is a 'food map' of chicago. All different kinds of food and where they can be found are displayed using icons, and the names of the restaurants are included.



This is the visualisation of an everyday busride. Including time and place.



This map shows where in town the highest rates of crime are, they are shown with bumps. The higher the bump, the higher the crime rate.

  1. Some very nice finds there! The last one is particularly interesting, if I saw that I would avoid those areas! Perhaps an inverse would attract people to particular areas. We look forward to seeing how you use these findings to influence your designs.

  2. It's nice that you did some inspirational research. The abstract and colorful pictures are very attractive and informative. As said by team Y, the last map is very interesting, but I was actually attracted to the high peeks as they look more important. When I read about the 'crime rate' I understood that it actually is something you should avoid.
