Above is officially my second map, which was considerably harder than my previous mapmaking experience. It is actually four maps showing the same data set, just with different data classification methods being used to sort the data.
The above map shows the different states of Mexico, sorted by population.
This map is my most complex so far. It shows a lot of the major features of Central Mexico, including Roads, Rivers, Railways, and Urban Areas. Also, if you will bring your attention to the inset at the top, I just want to point out that it was very complicated to create, and I am quite proud of it.
This final map is one of the Elevation of Mexico. I used a raster file of the elevation contours, inverted the color scheme, and added all of the frivalities that make a map pleasant to look at. I have become so proficient with making maps that it only took me about ten minutes to create this! I am getting good, but I still need to get better...
