Radical Cartography, brought to you by Bill Rankin

Seth Dixon‘s insight:

I was recently reminded of the graph and thought is was world sharing again.  This is an excellent spatial graph that helps to explain the distribution of the human population.  Why do we live where we live?   The longitude map is still fascinating, but has less explanatory power.  What would be brilliant is a graph that charted population by latitude (as this does) AND charts the amount of land at each given latitude.  Click here for Frank Jacobs analysis on the “Strange Maps” blog.
