Part One: Thematic Mapping

Level of Schools

This map shows all the school in Singapore. The legend of the map clearly shows the different school categories - primary, secondary and tertiary. The mixed school does not have a category on its own because it is being added into either a secondary or tertiary category. The colour chosen for the labels is 3 different shades of blue. Starting from the light shade of blue to represent the primary school, followed by the medium shade of blue to represent the secondary school and lastly the darkest shade of blue to represent the tertiary school. There are overlapping points due to the closeness of the school as some are side by side each other, therefore overlap of labels are unavoidable.

Road Network System

This map shows the Road network in Singapore. The legend of the map shows that there are 3 major category - expressway, major roads, minor roads. Major roads are those roads with road name containing "road", whereas the minor roads consist of road names containing "lanes", "street", "avenue" and more. Expressway is shown by the brightest yellow colour mimicking the colour used by the google map. The major road is being represented by green lines and because there are plenty of minor roads in Singapore, they are being represented by brown lines to prevent confusion.
