Assignment 8


ArcGis makes it easier to make maps and customize them. Here there are three maps made using ArcGis that show percentage of different poplulation in differnet parts of United States of America.

The above map shows the percentage population of African-Americans in different parts of United States of America. AS we can see from the map the Black population is densely concentrated in the south-east region of the country where the color is very dark. On the other hand, the population of Blacks is almost nil in the mid-west part of the country. Also we see that on the west coast there is thin population of African-American which almost dies down as we go north.







The above map describes the percentage of Asian Population in different parts of the country. As the legend describes, the dark color represents a strong population while lighter colour represents weaker population. The map clearly represents the south west region of America with a dense Asian population while the rest of the country has only a small percentage of the population.


This map describes the population of races other than White, Black or Asian. It could be Hispanice, Native American or other minorities. Blue color denotes a strong population of other races while green denotes weak population. As we can see from the map in parts of south-west America and south America the there is a dense population of other races while in the rest of the country they are scattered
