Cartographic Animations
The cartographic animation to the left, when seen in motion, shows the air temperature from 1959 through 1997. This was created, or at least published, by The University of Oregon in March of 2000. What the viewer can see is an actual progression of all the months of all the years that this study contains data for.
Isoline Map
This is an isoline map of China. It displays the average water amounts used for winter wheat irrogation across these regions.

Stem & Leaf Plot
This is a back-to-back stem and leaf plot/graph. It is showing that one graph can be made from two different sets of data simply by keeping the numbers that do not change in the middle. For example, this graph shows pulse rate before and after exercise, but the middle numbers can be maintained, and therefore only one graph is needed instead of two.
Parallel Coordinate Graph
Box Plot
Triangular Plot
Windrose
The windrose testing graph to the left was downloaded from windtesting.com. The focus is looking into setting up turbines, and therefore using alternative fossil fuel energy. Graphs like this are more than helpful in background research being done in order to try to move into a different technology.

Black & White Aerial Photo
Infrared Aerial Photo
An Infrared aerial photo can loosely be described as "Photography in which an infrared optical system projects an image directly on infrared film, to provide a record of point-to-point variations in temperature of a scene." (answers.com). The photo to the left is an infrared photograph taken of Grover Island, and the colors clearly show that the top of the island/middle of the island (which is only 1.4 miles across...from east to west) seems to have the most activity/heat. The URL for this photo can be found at: http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.camdencountylandtrust.org/grover-aerial-for-web.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.camdencountylandtrust.org/Grover%2520Island.htm&usg=__88QgpZ_sBXX9t42hp2htXp3Fytc=&h=310&w=497&sz=36&hl=en&start=40&um=1&tbnid=Afu4pMDoA6Z7EM:&tbnh=81&tbnw=130&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dinfrared%2Baerial%2Bphoto%26ndsp%3D18%26hl%3Den%26rls%3Dcom.microsoft:*:IE-SearchBox%26rlz%3D1I7GZFA%26sa%3DN%26start%3D36%26um%3D1

Range Graded Proportional Circle Map
A range graded proportional circle map is supposed to be a proportional circle map that "better" represents data circles with relation to their data. The map to the left better depicts the range (size and color wise) that seems to better represent its data. The URL for the map to the left is: https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSF91vjH2s9YtJX6-PGpGNDKUZIh36GUBEKa_EF6uzDgXqEae3v5EITLKuhJV__eIyOKYaSy3widJ3vHCGIUYd9yjulItCeAF8XHJlnEbxUMTE7BNaVleZ8pfz3nEPrs0si_OrYmLrh3eo/s320/Range+graded+proportional+circle+map.gif
Continuously Varibale Proportioanl Circle Map
A continuously variable proportional circle map is, apparently, a map which uses circles to create "point data." The photo on the left is a map, with info dated September 17, 2003, was compiles to show Native American populations by certain states. Its URL is: http://vin25maps.blogspot.com/2009/04/continuously-variable-proportional.html
ISOBAR
ISOBAR, essentially, utilizes a line to connect areas with equel atmospheric pressure(s). The map to the left is for a "swell" forecast (for surfuers), and has an emphasis on the Atlantic. The URL for this map is: http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.swell-forecast.com/en/tutorials/info_isobar_e.gif&imgrefurl=http://www.swell-forecast.com/en/tutorials/isob_e.htm&usg=__nWK07OgmB_gWsv5FCAZjWIs1oh8=&h=432&w=576&sz=24&hl=en&start=5&tbnid=mepsPbtKo5zsAM:&tbnh=101&tbnw=134&prev=/images%3Fq%3DISObar%26gbv%3D2%26ndsp%3D18%26hl%3Den
LIDAR
LIDAR radar is very similar to radar except that it uses laser lights instead of microwaves to produce its images. The picture to to the left Three-dimensional Image of is a canopy Structure with Pulsed LIDAR. This image's URL was taken from: http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://nature.berkeley.edu/biometlab/images/Lidar%2520sample%2520Tonzi.jpg&imgrefurl=http://nature.berkeley.edu/biometlab/fieldpics.html&usg=__6BTeDIBI8B6wNTtvBDCnxEzkG70=&h=478&w=545&sz=120&hl=en&start=32&tbnid=UJkidOms6N9ynM:&tbnh=117&tbnw=133&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dlidar%26gbv%3D2%26ndsp%3D18%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DN%26start%3D18
