During Module 4, we learned about color concepts and spent time creating various color ramps manually using step-wise calculations. This was a slow and arduous process to say the least! We also compared our linear and adjusted progression color ramps with the closest color ramp shown in Color Brewer. The differences between the linear and adjusted progression maps are quite minor. I found that the Color Brewer color ramp did not seem to have a logical, consistent step pattern, but also had a more divergent color scheme.
Mapping Change with Choropleth Mapping:
For this map, I chose a six class diverging color ramp from Color Brewer. I customized my legend in ArcGIS to match the Color Brewer color palette. I created six classes and used the "Quantile" classification.
