100 outstanding interactive maps of 2015 – part 1…

http://visualoop.com/blog/90498/100-outstanding-interactive-maps-of-2015-part-1


Welcome to the first part of this post with 100 interactive maps that stood out in 2015, among the hundreds we featured every week on our Digital Cartography column. So, this means that this should not be considered as a “best maps of the year″ post, since we are not taking in consideration the ones that we didn’t feature on Visualoop – although we’re sure that most of the ones gathered in this compilation definitively deserve that title.

This was a year in which maps continued to be among the favorite – or at least, among the most used – visualizations used by news portals and online publishers in general. Major events happening at a worldwide scale, from the conflicts in Syria and Iraq, the refugee crisis and terrorist attacks, to historical elections in several countries, and maps were a crucial part of the journalistic effort to clarify and inform what was really taking place.

The popularity of maps can also be viewed in the number of independent projects by companies and designers that we brought together in this selection. These projects take full advantage of the tools – new and improved ones – and techniques for storytelling with maps, to create impressive visualizations around topics such as the environment, politics, economics, transport, health and sports, just to name a few.

Overall, it was another exciting year for visualization, and interactive map-making in particular. Hope you’ll appreciate these first 50 picks as much as we did – specially because it was really hard to select them among so many great examples.
