This is a Geologic map of California. I chose this map because the geology of California is very interesting and diverse. It is also very visually stimulating and puts into perspective the massive amount of techtonic activity that California has experienced over long-scale geologic time. This map is color coordinated to show the different rocks present in California based on periods in Geologic history. California is truly amazing when it comes to Geology. The source of this map is the USGS website, URL: http://education.usgs.gov/california/maps/california_geology3.htm

  1. I like that all your maps had a personal significance. That makes things much more interesting. One thing to note: make sure you select images that are legible. Both your San Fransisco map and geology map are unreadable and therefore useless at this resolution.

    9.5/10
