Hi All Thought i would share a couple of (free!) tools available online which facilitate mapping. I came across these tools while doing maps for my blog ( datastories.in).
indiemapper.com if you have a shapefile, its a great tool. upload the shapefile, and attribute data and it generates the chloropleth, or even dot density map. provides east export to svg, jpg etc. also comes in handy if you just want to covert shp to jpg. decent UI shpescape.com/mix tool to convert bulky shapefiles to smaller web-friendly topojson format. this is a great help because topojson files are typically much smaller than the corresponding geojson or shp. will share other tools as i come across them. regards Avinash -- For more details about this list http://datameet.org/discussions/ --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "datameet" group.
