Sky Islands 3D Map / Infographic
Sky Islands 3D Map / Infographic
This 3D map and infographic was made using both ArcGIS and my illustration skills. I began by locating data for elevation, roads, and mountain peaks, and then used ArcGIS Pro to create a 3D scene using the data. Using the 3D scene as a base, I sketched out the mountains, roads, and labels, using different colors to indicate different elevation ranges. The result is a hand-drawn map including accurate elevations and other elements.
Also included is information about the Sky Islands region, an explanation of what sky islands are, a key to the elevation ranges, and icons to give a general idea of the ecosystem types found on the mountains.
