Create detailed inset maps for urban centers, using clear legends and marginalia. Highlight traffic flow changes effectively with color-coded ranges. Ensure consistency in legend presentation for easy interpretation.

Issues For Project 5 - 7 • Project your key map insets • Use an inset map to represent highly detailed areas, like urban centers • Use white not hollow for legend, map insets, and marginal information if formatting over base-map • Line Legends and marginalia up with frame lines • Main theme needs to be the most visually prominent, e.g., increase traffic flow • For essays: Color ≠ Grayscale ≠ Black & White and high traffic volumes ≠ traffic congestion
