Visualizing Detroit: The Art of Data 

This map is to educate the younger audience and anyone else who does not know what these zones are for. I compared an slightly older zone, old zone, and a zone more recent. I provided information from the City of Detroit Open Data Portal in the boundaries section of datasets. The illustrations are created by me with a help of the maps via Google. The colors are used to give a neutral setting with some pop of color depending on the importance of the map. The elements in my visual is to indicate any information provided about the tax property, borders, and more.

This project unfolds as a dynamic map, unveiling the intricate dance of urban life, where data metamorphoses from its raw form into information that traces the origins, paths, and destinations of its inhabitants. For urban planners and city leaders, these insights can reveal hidden structures, eventually finding a tool to shape and improve their communities. Some elements may remain open to interpretation, but therein lies the beauty and potential of art itself. In conclusion, data serves as the cornerstone upon which we construct our understanding of the world, a bridge between history and the present, a canvas for our artistic expressions, and a compass guiding us toward a brighter, more informed future.
