Manhattan Treemap

The Manhattan Tree Map is a wooden map based on the NYC Street Tree Census data. Each neighborhood is represented through a wooden block. It’s height signifies the amount of trees, whereas the wood represents the most prevalent tree. Beneath the blocks is a printed map with the exact geo-location of each tree.
Exhibited at DataThroughDesign at New York Open Data Week.
