Part 1: Thematic Mapping

Distribution of public school by school types:

• 

My cartographic technique makes sense as I did a qualitative thematic map using qualitative data, that is, school types. Since I wanted to categorise the map by school types, I removed the irrelevant information from the excel file such as the principal name. This will allow the geocoding process to run more smoothly. After adding the geocoded layer, I categorised by the different types of schools such as primary, secondary and more. I used point symbol and chose SVG marker to indicate the respective school types by using different symbols such as the whiteboard symbol for primary schools.
