Cartographer | Geographer | Photographer
Here is an ever increasing list of the maps I have created at the University of Wisconsin – Madison over the years. My personal favorites are the first two, "United States: The Living Surface" and "The Race to the Clouds"
This summer I had the amazing experience of being a citizen science intern. My team focused on mapping coastal debris along the beaches of Hopkins, Belize. I lived there for a month and gained invaluable skills and a new outlook on maps and their impact in the world.
This is the result of a semster long capstone project. During the project, my group and I collected water samples around Lake Mendota for Nitrogen and Phosphorus inputs from 5 watersheds. The results included maps, a presentation, and a final research paper as given below.
After finishing a remote sensing course, I had learned many sills, such as these exampls showing supervised and unsupervised classifications of land type, and change detection such as found with forests.
Two examples of interactive maps I made that look at world production of Blockbusters and electricity generation source per state in America.
