Distribution of Public Education Institutions by School Types

Hierarchy of Road Network System

Road Network Hierarchy

I created a new field “RD_CLASS” & followed URA’s guidelines on road nomenclature to filter the data into the various road network hierarchies.

  • Expressways – If they have ‘Expressway’ in their name
  • Major roads – Cat 1 & 2 roads
  • Minor roads – Cat 3-5 roads

Thereafter, I used different coloured lines to represent roads of each category. I changed the width of the roads according to the hierarchy, the expressways being the thickest & minor roads being the thinnest.
