Stonehouse compiled area map

Having all focused on a different aspect of Stonehouse, and plotting them, as a group we have placed all these layers onto a single map to represent our combined idea of the area. The red wavy areas/lines are, as before, to represent the main areas of noise pollution and focus on the main roads and activity sites. Within the group Luke placed the black dots to show people density in the open, the blue star like shapes to symbolise quiet locations, and thin black lines to indicate the field of view along Union Street. Ben chose to illustrate the aura/soul of the area with long thin blue lines, whilst Matt represents the desirability of the area in block colour on a sliding scale of red to green. Red being the least desirable, green being the most desirable. Finally Karla symbolised the flow/movement of people through and out of the area with a series of bold lines and green markers.



After having the combined map we decided to concentrate on an area of high interest within our group and with in the area, Union Street.
