Some People are on the Pitch ! | David Marsh, 2010

MapCarte n° 73/365 from the ICA - Commission on Map Design. Individual movement mapping. David Marsh mapped here he movements of player from the 1966 World Cup final between England and Germany at Wembley.
“It’s a map but it also exhibits an abstract aesthetic. Marsh has plotted the movement of players during the entire game and the overlapping tracks create a fascinating image of the game. There isn’t any real need to bin the data into simpler visual units, or create heat maps or do any sort of cluster or hot spot analysis. Marsh proves that the raw data in itself can be revealing as well as giving us a look at the match unfiltered. It’s a data portrait of the match.”

Je ne suis pas sur de ce que ça vaut, mais je référence pour regarder plus tard. L’approche a lair d’être originale et intéressante.
The standard way of illustrating socio-economic data for countries on a world map would be a choropleth. Options, of course, exist, to show data in a different way including proportional symbols or cartograms. All of these techniques are perfectly reasonable but all suffer from one problem, namely that it’s up to the map reader to make visual comparisons between areas shaded differently or symbolised differently. The focus is on how one place compares to another. What if the question is based on trying to understand how similar or dissimilar neighbours are?
This map looks specifically at the relationship between bordering countries to create a set of proportional line symbols that represent their dissimilarity…let’s call it a proportional adjacency map (any better ideas?). It’s a sort of linear cartogram. Thinner lines mean countries share a very similar value for the variable. Thicker lines mean adjacent countries are very dissimilar. Additional ‘boundaries’ have been added to show how countries differ when they are separated by a stretch of sea or ocean.

C’est intéressant en ce que ça rappelle l’analyse de Paul Farmer sur la dynamique de l’épidémie de sida : celle-ci a profité justement des gradients d’inégalités les plus forts, comme entre les USA et Haïti, pour accélérer. (Un bémol tout de même : cette approche carto ne montre pas les inégalités internes au sein des pays.)

The ICA Commission on Map Design acts as a forum for discussion, exchange of ideas and the development and spread of the principles and practice of high quality, effective cartographic design.
Good design and better mapping are core to effective cartography. Information in a well-designed map will be rapidly recovered, unambiguous, easily recalled and ultimately inspire confidence in both the product and the action that results from the map’s use.
The new ICA Commission has been established to focus attention on establishing effective patterns for new map makers; to encourage excellence in design as a key cartographic principle; and to bring together a wide variety of people from different disciplines to help shape cartographic design going forward.

Long before satellite imagery and aerial photography, cartographers had to imagine the landscape and explore different ways of representing the world. Hatsusaburo Yoshida trained as a textile designer but is well known for his spectacular birds eye view maps, produced in the early to mid 1900s.
