"Cartographic Animation"

Cartographic Animation

Cartographic anmations have evolved over time. In prehistoric histories the use of sticks, engraving in clay and drawing with charcoal dipicted animations of the people's interpretation in that particular time era. Since then, complex animations have replaced stick drawings. The map above is an example of a cartographic animation. It shows the movement of Hurricane Katrina in a snapshot moment.
