Weekly Blog Post #8: Heat Maps!

I'm not going to lie, I did a Google search for a heat map.  I typed in "heat map" just to see what would pop up.  Typically nothing of interest shows up, because most people do not label their maps as the type of map they are.  However, I got lucky this time.  I found this article on Yahoo News showing heat maps that show us the "most dangerous places on earth" when it comes to natural disasters.  They are interesting to look at, and actually quite pretty!  The wildfire one was my favorite because it looks like an old school video game.  :)
