Final Project: Taxi!



This was to be submitted as a hard copy at approximately 16"x14". Unfortunately due to some technical difficulties, poor planning on my part (not using a more standardized canvas/paper size to start with), time constraints, and the realization of just how much it would cost at Kinko's, it will instead be submitted online.

Its visual impact would have been much more striking as printed copy in my opinion, but I hope you enjoy it nonetheless.

Thanks for a fun class!

Programs used:
Adobe Photoshop CS4
ESRI ArcMap 9.3
Microsoft Excel 2007
My data for the project can be seen here (actual calculations and graphs were done in Excel): http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0Am2bxYkU36rCdDZlRVdabzZZU0k4NjhVM0pZY3Ewenc&hl=en

Blogger apparently resizes uploaded pics to a maximum width of 1600px. If the original size is desired I can send it in an email.
