Detroit Ruins Map


View Detroit in a larger map

This is a map I made for an ALA online class on Geospacial techniques and mapping.  It goes along with a reference resource bibliographic essay I did for my Reference class at Pratt.  I wish I could show you the Google Earth version of this map that shows housing vacancy data for 2001-2010 as an overlay.  It allows you to see how the empty the city has become over the past 10 years, but I can't figure out how to link it.  It was really fun learning how to make the map and quite easy.  I was able to link movies and pictures to each of my points of interest.  Enjoy!
