Part 1: Thematic Mapping

The thematic mapping developed uses these following data and applied techniques:

Data Visualisation & Processing Technique
General information of schools from the “School Directory and Information” dataset retrieved from data.gov.sg. Layer: School

Symbology: Categorised by `mainlevel_` attribute which indicates if an indicated point belongs to either centralised institute, junior college, mixed level, secondary or primary school. Each category is labeled with following color:

center

ROAD SELECTION LINE AND MAP LINE


Color choices were contrasted differently from other components/layers for easy reference.

Processing: The initial dataset was geocoded using the MMQIS by its `address` field in order to retrieve `latlong` projection of the data points.

Data not found:
- RAFFLES INSTITUTION, 1 RAFFLES INSTITUTION LANE.
- BOWEN SECONDARY SCHOOL ,2 LORONG NAPIRI.

“Masterplan 2014 Landuse” dataset retrieved from data.gov.sg. Layer: Land Use

Symbology: Light Grey simple fill

Visualisation Rule: The visibility of Land Use layer is automatically displayed as the user zooms in approximately 1-2 times.

FIGURE III

ROAD SELECTION LINE AND MAP LINE

Processing: 2 datasets was used to represent different types of road. The national map line only provides expressway, major roads, international boundary and contour lines, the road selection data provides overall road network in Singapore. The Map Line layer highlights its road types using the categorisation rule, applying different colours and line width to emphasize type of road. The minor road can be implied by excluding road network that belongs to express way, intersections, and major roads.

“MP14_SUBZONE_NO_SEA_PL” by URA retrieved from data.gov.sg. Layer: MP14_SUBZONE_NO_SEA_PL

Symbology: Light Brown simple fill

Was included to provide a macro view base layer as an optional display. The layer represents subzones that could be useful in interpreting where road networks or school is located.

OpenStreetMap view could also be used, however the subzone layer better express the subzone boundaries through a simple display.

OVERVIEW OF THEMATIC MAPPING


Firstly, the thematic mapping shown in figure 5 represents the default view of the map. School data points, map line and road network are shown on top of the OpenStreetMap.

FIGURE IV

MICRO VIEW OF LAND USE VISIBILITY WITH ROAD NETWORKS AND SCHOOL DATA POINTS


The land use data was set with automatic scale visibility, the overall land use layer will only be clearly visible as the user zooms in for interpretation. The land use data provides a micro level data of the indicative polygon of each development land parcel. Thus, there’s no need for this layer to be displayed in a more macro view as lines will not be value-adding to visualisation interpretation.

Next, the national map line only provides expressway (blue line), major roads (magenta line), international boundary and contour lines (excluded), while the road selection data provides overall road network in Singapore. Thus, achieving an overview of all types of road can be done by overlapping the road networks to retrieve minor road (red line) through overlapping as shown in figure V.

FIGURE VII

OPENSTREETMAP VIEW


The `MP14_SUBZONE_NO_SEA_PL` and OpenStreetMap layer (Figure VI & VII) were added as I believe that it might help in terms of data interpretation, eg: finding out where a junior college is located by subzones and its distance to major road where it's usually major road provides better transportation option/accessibility.

Symbology: Below is the configuration used for percentage change of aged population. The legend classification intervals were split into 2 ways, negative changes which represents a decrease change were categorised using an equal distribution from the minimum decrease value of -100% to 0. Next, Natural Breaks (Jenks) were used to classify the 5 next categories for the positive values to indicate. Due to its high variance value, the Jenks classification represents best for this case. Additionally, 2 distinct colours (red and blue) were used to appropriately display the nature of percentage change of the aged population from 2010 to 2018. [[File:|center|500px]]
