In this week's module, we had to critique a good map and a bad map. My good map is of Easter Island which is easy to read and understand. It has effective labels, the map layout is good, substantial information is mapped, and map crap is minimized. The second map below is terrible if for anything, too much red. It is a map of London bus routes. The roads are colored red and have the bus numbers and stops along them in black. It is a very challenging map to read.
