Thematic Mapping
Level of Schools
This map shows the distribution of schools in Singapore. The Geographical locations were derived using the ONE MAP API. The Schools fall under 5 categories with different colours and symbolized by the education SVG marker. Primary and secondary schools dominate as the majority of schools in Singapore.
Road Hierarchy Map
This map shows the road hierarchy of Singapore according to LTA standards (https://www.ura.gov.sg/-/media/Corporate/Resources/Publications/Streets-and-Building-Names/SBNB_handbook_streets.pdf?la=en)
The 4 categories have been coloured to differentiate between each other as well as different widths to showcase the hierarchy. With the exception of Major roads being a grey solid line and local access roads as a grey dotted line.
Master Plan Land use
The Data has been grouped to themes which I felt would be useful to analyse as a whole like the business 1 and business 2 being grouped to one theme.
The various patterns are present to paint a better visualizing to prevent overcrowding with too many colour which transition to look the same when projecting.
The colours like waterbody and open space have been tuned to look more in align with the natural state.
Various patterns can be seen such as
- Port of entry being built at the bottom-right area and top left area of Singapore
- Reserve areas being located at the North and North-East
