Not easy. But it can be done (in theory, anyway).

I live in a rural enough area that I can actually make a pretty good guess at 
which one of those dots is me -- even without labels.  :)

That's a very cool map...

Question. There is a bridge that runs across the extreme western end of Lake 
Ontario. It's called the Burlington Skyway.  (Essentially, it allows people 
traveling around the western edge of the lake to bypass Hamilton.) 

On this (otherwise very interesting map), the Burlington Skyway is covered with 
dots. So far as I know, no one lives on the bridge. Why does it have any dots?

I found myself but I did need show labels to find my town. 
Once you find your town then the holes in the map (like shopping 
centers, parks) are very useful in orientation.

This is what the author of the map says about weirdly located dots:

Nobody lives in Central Park/Pier 12/County Lockup/Abandoned Themepark.
The census reported that someone lived there.
This says someone lives in the middle of a lake.
The census reported that someone lives in a block which includes a lake, and 
that's where their dot was randomly placed. Also, some people live in the 
middle of lakes.

 covered with dots. So far as I know, no one lives on the bridge. Why
 does it have any dots? 

Good question. The answer is that they're living alongside the bridge 
(and they aren't trolls either).

I used to live in Hamilton while I studied at McMaster. I never went 
down there, but I seemed to recall that there were streets there. 
Sure enough, Google maps shows a spit of land running alongside the 
Skyway, and that's probably where those dots reside.

 What struck me about the map, aside from illustrating the vast 
unpopulated wilderness of my own country (which is hardly a surprise 
but impressive nonetheless), was how neatly the populated east was 
divided from the sparse west (except for the west coast). It's as 
though a line was drawn north to south through the middle of the 
continent. To the east, people. To the west, not so much.

Re: [tips] Finding yourself

2013-01-24 Thread Paul C Bernhardt
This certainly explains a lot of the errors. There can also be data entry 
errors of addresses.

A family member of mine has been chasing down census records and sending them 
to me. What I find interesting is how many errors are in those records. My 
grandmother and great grandmother were both named Stella, but that year's 
census taker recorded them as both as Estelle. In two cases streets were 
mistakenly entered, which would misplace their 'dots' on this kind of map.

All of this goes to say, that data entry errors in all kinds of records are 
commonplace from what I can tell. And, I doubt there is much reason to think 
that there would be many fewer data entry errors nowadays.

Question. There is a bridge that runs across the extreme western end of Lake 
Ontario. It's called the Burlington Skyway.  (Essentially, it allows people 
traveling around the western edge of the lake to bypass Hamilton.)

On this (otherwise very interesting map), the Burlington Skyway is covered with 
dots. So far as I know, no one lives on the bridge. Why does it have any dots?

I live in a rural enough area that I can actually make a pretty good guess at 
which one of those dots is me -- even without labels.  :)

That's a very cool map...

Not easy. But it can be done (in theory, anyway).
Hint: Click on the tab in the upper right,  show labels.

In the meantime, admire this impressive exercise in data presentation.
