Saving your cartograms maps

Hi


Today is our last class!

You and your partner must finish making the 10 cartogram maps for your project from the ten sets of data you have chosen.

In case you should need to access these again I suggest that you save each of your cartogram maps to a shape files and copy these to your own storage device i.e. phone or memory stick.

You can use these steps that you used to incorporate the joined data into a single shape except now you are simpoly exporting the cartogram which is saved when it is produced in a special database to a shape file. Remember you will get about 6 file for each cartogram you export.

Steps for exporting a cartogram layer to a shape file. 

You must then export each to an image to use in your power point project. Follow these steps...

Saving your cartograms as an image

Once you have all ten between you and you partner you are ready to do your power point project.

Instruction for your project in the next post

Cheers
Martin
