Lab3:Cartogram World Tweets mapping
Lab3:Cartogram World Tweets mapping
In this lab, we produce the cartogram of world tweets, i.e. the number of tweets of each country within 2-hour period. Finally you will see how the numbers in each country different from others in distorted polygon sizes (cartogram) and colors (under head/tail breaks scheme).
I devided the data into 7 classes to emphasize the differences between the group of data.By comparing tweets within 2 hours and 12hours,The United States is still the most tweeted country.However,its lead over the other groups seems to have narrowed in 12 hours.Interestingly, on the map, you can hardly see China and Central Asian countries tweeting.
