Revisiting this diagram I posted on Twitter in 2016. A handy guide to two Greek #cartographic terms that I made up based on our use of choropleth. I'm writing a paper and found this as I tried to remember what term I'd come up with for a line-choropleth. Hopefully I can sneak "grammapleth" in to my paper.

If I recall correctly, I specifically used Euclid's terms for line and point when coming up with this.

About the weekend and my newest exercises in QGIS and #OSM: a #cartographic #transitmap of the #trolleybus network in #Szeged, #Hungary. #Trams and #railways are shown too but the focus lies on trolleybuses 😊 map data by #OpenStreetMap, designed by me completely in #QGIS. Did it for fun 😊 enjoy!

Constructive feedback is welcome.

Framing up some pictures, the matte was out of the frame for 2¼ minutes, cat managed to chew on a corner as I filled my tea cup ...
He must be a cartographic critic...
(fortunately it was small enough so that is tucked under the corner of the frame)
