Welcome to My Map Analysis Map Catalog

Welcome to my Map Analysis Catalog for GIS3015 at Florida State University. I collected my data mainly using Google and exploring many different websites that Google found for me. I also used some of my own images (such as doppler radar, and the like) I have collected through the years of me being a weather dork (haha). I hope you enjoy my collection of maps and photographs :)

Enjoy!
