This was a web mapping assignment where we used Leaflet.js. The assignment was to plot earthquake markers on a global map. The earthquake data was from USGS GeoJSON Feed. We ploted 'All Earthquakes from the Past 7 Days'.
The final map should include:
-
Data markers that reflect the magnitude of the earthquake in their size and color. Earthquakes with higher magnitudes should appear larger and darker in color.
-
Include popups that provide additional information about the earthquake when a marker is clicked.
-
Create a legend that will provide context for your map data.
-
Plot a second data set on our map (i.e. fault lines or tectonic plate boundaries)
-
Add a number of base maps to choose from as well as separate out our two different data sets into overlays that can be turned on and off independently.
-
Add layer controls to our map.
