Summary

In this lesson, we learned about designing with the purpose of the map in mind. You learned about the various considerations you need to think about when creating a map for a given audience. Examples of such considerations are the age and knowledge level of our audience along with audience members who might have low-vision. Finally, you learned on how you should plan a layout and how visual hierarchy of our features, balancing empty spaces and projections can affect maps.
