Hacks For Attractive And Fast Web-based Maps: Peaking Inside NPR’s Workflow
Daniel Wood, Zach Levitt, NPR
At NPR.org, we make maps for the web that need to look crisp across mobile and desktop, with lots of annotation, while being easily edited by non-technical team members. And we do it without paying for almost any software (except Illustrator ¯\_(ツ)_/¯). In this talk we’ll show off the scripts, hacks and duct tape that hold together some of NPR’s favorite maps from the last couple years. We hope to contribute a few new tips and tricks to the ever-growing PCD toolbelt of happy mappy hacks and strats.
This session is co-host by Kati Perry & Wenfei Xu
Slack channel: #nacis2021-pcd-afternoon1
This presentation was made at the 2021 annual meeting of the North American Cartographic Information Society (NACIS). For more information on NACIS, check out http://NACIS.org.
