- Develop your initial visualization and commit your code and documentation in the folder called
3.mapping-quantities/project. If you have designed a static visualization, upload a PDF at the proper scale and trim its art-board to be full-bleed.
- Fine tune the text and typography surrounding your diagram in order two provide ‘three reads’ in terms of information from headline to body text to legends & labels (similar to the three visual reads we explored in the first assignment).
- Include a brief (just a few sentences) explanation of your project’s data and how it is presented in
3.mapping-quantities/project/README.md
