Date: Thursday, Sept. 13
Time: 2pm Eastern

Online maps provide context, engage viewers with interactive features, and reveal stories by visualizing complex and simple data, as in this example visualizing US foreign held debt, and DCist weekend picks.
Join data analyst Dave Johnson of MapBox for 20 minutes to see the most common use cases for online maps, such as in blogs and news stories.

Time will be left at the end so people can ask about their own use cases.
