My Recent Work
Demographic Analysis in the Charlottesville Area
This project saw me comparing data on the proportion of households with children (top) and median income (bottom) in the Charlottesville area. Each map on the left is accompanied by a hotspot analysis map on the the right, which shows areas where the selected variable was clustered lower and higher.
Crime Analysis in Hopewell, VA
Crime data for Hopewell was separated by type and generally geolocated using 100-block segments. The points generated were then used to create heat maps showing relative intensity of reported crimes throughout the city.
Proposed GRTC Bus Stops
For this project, I was tasked with interpreting data on population density, income, and relative access to personal vehicles as factors in deciding where to place two hypothetical proposed bus stops. While away from the main road, the proposed stops are in an area with relatively few car owners and lower than average income, and the expansion of the service area would bring coverage to several hundred likely riders.
Future Land Use Map of Hopewell, VA
The following map of planned development zones in Hopewell represents a consolidation of disparate data sources, sources which were aggregated in one place as part of this little project.
Litter Survey in Hopewell, VA
Recently completed for the Hopewell Department of Public Works, this map depicts the relative intensity of litter throughout the city of Hopewell, based on windshield surveys completed in 2023. Areas highlighted in red show the highest prevalence of street trash, while areas in yellow were relatively litter free.
Storymaps: At the Top of the World
Here I was tasked with using ArcGIS Storymaps to create a narrative explained geographically. I chose to depict the year I lived in Austria honing my German and teaching in Austrian schools.
