Title: Integrating Fast, Data Rich Maps with MapBox

Date: Thursday, Sept. 13

Time: 2pm Eastern

Presenter: DevelopmentSeed

Description: One of the most effective ways of telling a story is to visualize it with images and maps. 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. These embedded maps can be made in less than 20 minutes from simple excel spreadsheets, or just created on the fly by dropping markers with descriptions. Time will be left at the end so people can ask about their own use cases.
