📋 YOUR TODO LIST

  1. Check mystery images:
    cd ~/github/ctsilva.github.io/2025-InfoVis-CSE/slides/figs/week8/
    open image63.png  # Check if this is one of the Twitter maps
    open image76.png  # Check if this is one of the Twitter maps
    
  2. Extract remaining PPTX images (if mystery images aren’t the right ones):
    • Open 7-Visualizing Geographical Data.pptx
    • Manually screenshot or extract from slides:
      • 56-59 (Twitter normalization)
      • 66-67 (2016 Election)
      • 213-219 (Binning methods - need to composite)
      • 221-222 (Color scales)
  3. Create composite for binning-comparison.png:
    • Use image editing tool to combine 3 maps side-by-side
    • Or use screenshot of slide showing all three
  4. Rename and place files in figs/week8/

  5. Re-render slides:
    cd ~/github/ctsilva.github.io/2025-InfoVis-CSE/slides/
    quarto render week8-geovis-2d-maps.qmd
