Une #carte du HCR montrant où fuient les #réfugiés_ukrainiens :
commentaire sur twitter de James Cheshire :
It’s time to innovate the ways we show people fleeing war.
8 arrows for 874,026 human beings is not good enough.
It’s also the same visual language we use for the invaders.

Autre visualisation, en réponse au tweet de James Cheshire :
Une solution :
Like many newsrooms, we had a discussion this morning about how to visualise the flight of refugees from Ukraine. Half a dozen arrows feels both too sharp and too blunt—we’re talking about over 1m desperate individuals. I really like what @eljlees came up with
Commentaire Kenneth Field sur twitter :
In response to suggestions: my #Ukraine refugee dispersal map which adds negative space in the colour fill within the border to reinforce idea of displacement into neighbouring countries (and a note about dots being indicative).
More dramatic but perhaps too much?
Un thread de Levi Westerveld sur twitter:
Interesting to see how the @nytgraphics has changed their map symbology as the Russian war in #Ukraine️ unfolds. On Feb 26, large red arrows and an almost opaque red color shows Russian advances in Ukraine. Suggesting fast, large and controlled overtaking.
By march 3rd, the arrows are considerably smaller, and the occupied areas are shown in a more transparent red color. Suggesting more complexity in the reality on the ground. Still, Ukrainian forces appear non-existent on the map.
By march 7th, the NYT’s maps now show for the first time the Ukrainian forces in blue. Russian forces are given a slightly more pink tone. Occupied areas are rendered with more transparency than before, but cities under Russian control are now labeled in red.
By March 21st, Ukraine’s presence in the map is increased by showing all large cities under Ukrainian control in blue. The ’Russian occupied areas’ previously shown in red are no longer shown on the map.
Curious to know from @nytgraphics how much of these changes in visualization are simply due to strong Ukraine forces, or because there is an increased recognition that different cartographies can significantly change how one understands the war?

Réhumaniser l’exode des réfugiés passe aussi par la cartographie
Tous les jeudis, Jules Grandin nous aide à y voir plus clair dans l’actualité grâce à ses cartes. Cette semaine, il s’intéresse à la représentation des réfugiés de guerre. Depuis un mois, des centaines de milliers d’Ukrainiens fuient leur pays pour trouver refuge en Europe. Pour les représenter sur les cartes, on utilise le plus généralement d’énormes flèches pour montrer leur trajectoire. En plus d’être impersonnelles et simplificatrices, ces flèches ont aussi le défaut d’avoir été utilisées dans de nombreuses images de propagande à travers l’Histoire.
