===Project Goals===
[[Image:SOCR_Distributions_Wave_Bot_Project_Fig1.png|150px|thumbnail|right| SOCR Cartographic Charts]]

To develop an agile and functional Java interface and an applet that integrates available [[SOCR]] resources (e.g., [[SOCR_EduMaterials_ChartsActivities | SOCR Charts]]) and provide the means to enter geo-political data and construct proportional cartography maps. In these maps, the sizes of different geographic regions, such as countries, provinces, continents, etc., appear proportional to the data provided by the user. The new '''SOCR Cartographic Charts''' will use the fundamental [[SOCR]] development principals and be accessible via the [[SOCR]] web-server. The image to the right illustrates an example of a cartographic map of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USA USA], where states are drawn approximately proportional to the square footage per capita.

==Background==
Many of the [[SOCR_EduMaterials_ChartsActivities | SOCR Charts]] provide advanced tools for computational and graphical exploratory data analysis. Typical geo-political maps represent the world in a flat 2D Euclidean space where the North Pole looks huge and the equator appears small (Gastner and Newman, 2004). Data obtained for different geographic, political or regional locales may be used to morph the standard world atlases into cartographic maps that represent the areas, colors or glyphs of different regions according to the (multi-modality) data. Such maps are called '''data-driven-cartographic maps'''.

==Project Specifications==
* Review the references below.
* Develop the computational model for handling multi-modal data (e.g., [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GDP GDP], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Population_size population size], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Income average income], [[SOCR_Data_Dinov_021808_ConsumerPriceIndex3Way | CPI]], etc.) The user should be able to map these data to specific cartographic features (e.g., region area, size, color, glyphs, etc.)
* Plan the extension of [[SOCR_EduMaterials_ChartsActivities | SOCR Charts]] and [[SOCR_MotionCharts | SOCR Motion Charts]] to design and implement this new infrastructure.
* Test and validate the new '''SOCR Cartographic Charts''' with real data and deploy to [[SOCR]] production server.

Any Wave participant may scan, respond, contribute, update and modify a Wave, with a version-controlled time-point reference to all Wave contributions. A Wave is an interactive, rich and live communication between wave-riders.
