GeoTech Spotlight – Regional Differences Project – Drawing America’s Regions

August 19, 2013 By Editor

How do you define the Northwest or the Rockies regions of America? Enter The Regional Differences Project – a cool project that lets users enter their definition of regions in an effort to crowd source regional differences and define the spatial makeup of the land… pretty cool! 

From the project… This project is to collect data on where people think different regions of America are located. People from Texas and Florida have strong views on whether or not they are part of the “South”, while people from Vermont and Connecticut and Georgia have different ideas about “New England”, and the “Midwest” might migrate a thousand miles depending on where you learned the term.

Draw region boundaries as you see them. You can submit as many or as few regions as you’d like.
