Project 3

Lab description

This map was created using leaflet and based on the watercolor Stamen map. I created a map in a hosted version of Leaflet leafletjs.com using coordinates for Buffalo. I then added a better looking tile layer using map.stamen.com. Finally I added added a marker using the University's coordinates

This map is of the same location but has added information using a shapefile in QGIS. A qgis shapefile was converted into GeoJSON, which allows the data to be used by leaflet. I then wrote code to interpret the data and output a value. This resulted in the popup when clicking on a dot on the map, telling you information about the property value and ownership. I also selected a new basemap from leaflet, preferring one of greyscale to highlight important information.
