Thematic Map

This thematic map presented by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, this map shows the distribution of pounds released, chemicals and risk-related results. A thematic map is designed to focus on specific ideas or themes, which is a perfect map type for the U.S. EPA, because it can show the distribution of different effects things have on the environment.
