Spatial Data Mapping and Diagramming
This guide will introduce the method of visualizing spatial data through Mapbox, including the method of adding new data layers to generate a heat-map and using the intelligent component in Mapbox to generate 3D extrusion map.
The first part is the preparation work before using Mapbox, including the basic introduction of Mapbox studio, as well as the method of registering account and uploading data, etc. Second is the use of Mapbox basic function to visualize spatial data, in this guide we will use the dataset of the distribution of Hong Kong bus station to generate a heat-map as an example to introduce.
Finally, we will use the data visualization component of Mapbox to visualize spatial data. In this guide, we will use the total number of public rental housing units and the number of occupied units per capita in 18 districts in Hong Kong to generate a 3D extrusion map as an example to explain.
