Rose Final:
- My first map is a simple map showing food insecurity rates throughout the United States. One of the layers shows the rates around the country and how they vary based on shade of color. There is also a layer showing food banks around the United States through the Feeding America program, a prominent organization that aims on decreasing food insecurity throughout the country with food banks and providing proper meals and resources. This was sparked by my HHK background and my interest in public health and especially our food system. Although a very simple map one is able to see some of the hotbeds for food insecurity and whether or not they are being provided some aid from Feeding America food banks. This data allows us to analyze and try to help in the future.

- This app shows the MTA subway lines throughout New York City along with popular attractions throughout the city as well. Many of these attractions include highly visited Christmas attractions like the Rockefeller Christmas Tree and more. Being from New York I know first hand how crazy it can get during the holidays. The idea is to help people, mainly tourists, who are not comfortable riding the subway lines or navigating New York find their way around using the subway line and visiting attractions. This would best be fit for a mobile app that everyone can use and access on their phone with ease.
