Quick, which country has the most Internet users? What about the number
of cars on the road? Which countries use nuclear power? These types of
questions don't often pop up in real life. But there are situations
where this information is important. School projects and political
discussions are two good examples. Unfortunately, wading through
statistical information is boring. After a while, the numbers all run
together but not with mapping the wrold.
It starts with a standard map of the world. Selecting a topic modifies
the map. Countries grow and shrink to match the statistical data.
Hovering your mouse over a country gives you more information. It's an
easy way to visualize information. And you can even submit information
to be added on a topic.
