Questions to Keep in Mind
6
- What agencies or organizations are involved in the type of data I’m collecting? Would they be for or against my map?
- What argument is my data making? What action or change is it asking viewers to make? Reach a new understanding? Engage in social action? Something else?
- Are there counterarguments to be made? What other data might be mapped to investigate other ways of interpreting my map?
- Who or what is missing from this map? Are those absences an ethical issue I need to address?
