CARTOGRAPHIC ANIMATION

This particular map is a non-temporal (not representing change over time) cartographic animation of Omaha, Nebraska. It reflects the spatial trend of population based on age groups across the city. Omaha’s early growth happened along the river which is the easterly border giving reason for the higher percentage of older people in this area while the younger ones are in the north and west parts of the city which developed later.
