#web mapping

Hi Everyone! Here is my GitHub URL so that my web maps can be accessed:

For each web map I post, I will provide a post to announce it. So here is my first collection of web maps, it includes three web maps focusing on the different fields of a dataset I found on OpenDataPhilly that shows public art in Philadelphia. The fields include: Neighborhood, Medium and Year of Creation. All these maps were created using Leaflet. The code is also featured on the GitHub under 'index'.

The Philadelphia Public Art GeoJson was copied and pasted into leaflet and saved as a JavaScript file(.js). From there I pretty much filtered down the neighborhood field to only include Center City, Poplar and University City. Each neighborhood had a separate filter. In the pop ups I included the title of the work, name of the artist, and year it was created.

Using the same JavaScript file, I created the medium map. This is probably my favorite of the three, since I really like the colors behind it. When you click on a piece of art, it provides you with the title, artist name, year, medium and location.

The final map is by year, and it's similar to the art medium map, but just has three categories: before 1970, 1970 to 1999 and then 2000 to present.

This project was my final for my Web Mapping class (which I enjoyed more than I thought, since I had zero programming experience going into the class). Originally, I wanted to create an interactive map of the income and test scores I completed for my Cartographic Design (see the post below this), but after some trouble with the GeoJson, I found this dataset and really enjoyed working on it. I've always loved art, and it was refreshing to work on a map about art!

Learning how to publish my maps was hard. I went through about 3 different tutorials on how to publish on GitHub. In the end, I found a template that was the most user-friendly!
