Map by case type

This map is different from the Image:H1N1 map.svg map, which is a map by case type, this is a map by number of deaths.

Scale

It might be good to readjust the scale a bit, now that I think it over...

suggestions:

0 deaths   suspected deaths

1+ deaths   5+ deaths

10+ deaths   20+ deaths   50+ deaths

100+ deaths   200+ deaths   500+ deaths

1000+ deaths   2000+ deaths   5000+ deaths

0 deaths   suspected deaths

1+ deaths   5+ deaths

20+ deaths   100+ deaths

500+ deaths   2000+ deaths

10000+ deaths   50000+ deaths

Used scale

I am in totally disagree with the used colors in this map. Is a convention that the gray color (or white) must be used as base. The argument for using gray because the deaths were painted in black is easily refutable, all the scales of all the colors finish with black!

So, I recommend a scale in violet, something like this:

0 deaths   suspected deaths

1+ deaths   5+ deaths

10+ deaths   20+ deaths  and the rest...

Can you come up with a longer scale? It has to have atleast 200+ deaths 70.29.208.129 (talk) 04:47, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

There is the unused blue scale...

  200,000+ total cases

  50,000+ total cases

  10000+ total cases

  2000+ total cases

  500+ total cases

  100+ total cases

  20+ total cases

  5+ total cases

  1+ total cases

70.29.208.129 (talk) 04:47, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

Yes, the scale that I suggested must to be longer, but I don't know how to make them... =(

The color blue has to be avoided because it can be confused with water, and talk of more than 10,000 deaths in one country is a bit apocalyptic, as an example, the map of cases only talks about 5,000. --201.255.152.243 (talk) 23:11, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

I was planning for a Spanish Flu scale disaster, so that there are no arguments on colors if the outbreak turned especially deadly. 70.29.208.129 (talk) 08:36, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

There's always the green-scale which I've not mentioned until now...

Well, working with Inkscape I did this scale. If you like it I can edit the map with this colors:

  0 deaths

  suspected deaths

  1+ deaths

  5+ deaths

  10+ deaths

  50+ deaths

  100+ deaths

  500+ deaths

I know the current scale works that way, but that's why I made a suggestion for a revised scaling... so that it's more like doubling (0/1+/5+/10+/20+/50+/100+/200+/500+/1000+/2000+/5000+/10000+) or the "5x scale" (0/1+/5+/20+/100+/500+/2000+/10000+)... there's always the magnitude scale (0/1+/10+/100+/1000+/10000+) and the scale used on the other maps (0/1+/5+/50+/500+/5000+) ... after some thought, I believe the jump from 10y->50y is a bit large, so modify it to 10y->20y->50y 70.29.208.129 (talk) 08:41, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

So will the color scale be changed? The grey is very difficult to discern what number of deaths the shades on the map correspond with. 71.101.144.182 (talk) 23:37, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
