This map is a thematic map, illustrating a very
specific topic. This map illustrates the concentrated solar resource in the
United States. This is done by using different colors and varying shades to
demonstrate the intensity. This colors can be read using the provided legend to
the right. The projection used for this map is Alber’s Equal Area conic projection.
The shape is distorted but the area is true for each state. There are two
standard parallels where no distortion occurs but shape and distance have
minimal distortion in between these parallels.
