This is a satellite image of San Francisco hybridized with street names and neighborhoods. I chose this map because I lived in San Francisco for five years prior to moving to LA and I love it so much. I like the use of satellite imagery mixed with street names and places.

This is an old USGS topographical map of the island of Oahu. The source is the U.S. Geological Survey in Cooperation with the Territory of Hawaii. 1930. the Library of Congress.

I chose this map because I lived on Oahu for four years and am fascinated by its topography. I also love the way these old maps look. The dull colors and fine lines really make you look closely at the information given.

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.
