Astrobiology Sites Location Map

Location and Site Data

Using NASA Astrobiology Sites location data, characteristics can be represented for any given site, and presented on a thematic map.

Thematic maps use symbols to represent the data characteristics of a particular location as well as broader area comparisons.

Each symbol represents the data characteristics for a given site occurring within a bounding polygon such as a Zip Code or Census tract. The symbol to data ratio is revealed by clicking a symbol to view the underlying characteristic data.

The 65 by 42 inch vinyl map (see Figure 1 below) of NASA Astrobiology Institute sites was produced using Location Analytics features of TheTown™ Visual Intelligence for the NASA Astrobiology Conference 2006 in Washington, D.C.
