What I did on my Spring Break


This is a map of Gulf County showing the four largest land owners and their acreage owned.  I also calculated the sum of the remaining acres and included that in the legend.  This assignment was free reign with regards to which features to include.  I chose to not display any parcel lines because the data was about total acres.  After selecting a blue background, the gaps in the parcel layer showed several water features which added some nice contrast.  I added a county boundary but chose not to add any other layers since the objective of the map was met without any clutter or additional labeling.
