This is an improved color version of the choropleth map I made for Lab 5. I went with my natural breaks classification because I felt it did a better job representing the data. Overall I'm very pleased with the outcome. I used the colorbrewer web application to pick colors that would create a smooth progression for my five classes. In the end I chose a multihued scheme and think it works nicely. The biggest difference between my print version and my web optimized version is that in the print version it's a little difficult to differentiate the last two classes. While it is possible, I can see how someone might have trouble. The web optimized version is very clear though. I think all of the other colors in my print version were very close to the web version which I expected because I used a scheme that was good for both the web and print. I wouldn't make any modifications to my web optimized version.
