Racial Dot Map - [New York]

UpdatedJanuary 14, 2024

•1 min read

Hi, I'm Leo. A Geomatician and Data Analyst who loves unfolding the metrics of daily human activities.

I recently started a YouTube channel where I share explainer videos on GIS analytical processes. And here I am, starting out a blog for the same purpose.

I'm currently working on adding a host of python libraries to my stack, and I'd be sure to update you as I do.

When I'm not writing codes or crunching numbers to inform Geospatial decisions, you'd find me writing texts on how exactly you can do that. Yes, a Technical Writer.

Here's my Stack: SQL {PostgreSQL, MySQL} Python {NumPy, Pandas, Matplotlib, Seaborn} GIS Applications [QGIS, ArcGIS, Google Earth Pro, AutoCAD]

Aim

The purpose of this analysis was to determine the distribution of the Multi-racial city of New York.

Data Source

The census data for this project was obtained from Census Reporter while the boundary data was obtained from OpenStreetMap.

Result

A racial dot map showing the population of White, Black, Indian American, and Asian races in the city of New York. Each dot on the map represents a person.
