Classed Choropleth Maps



- Classed choropleth maps are just a variation of a choropleth map, which are a type of theamatic map. In this type of map colors and shades reflect the value of the desired area.

- In this classified choropleth map the value range of a numeric attribute is divided into differently coloured intervals. For example in the screen shot above showing Fertility rate figures for Europe, those countries which fall into the lowest fertility band are shown in dark blue and those with the highest rate are shown in dark red.
