Starbucks Map and Graph Assignment Using the Starbucks’ Statistics 2008 Excel document, create a histogram for the total number of Starbucks found in each of the 50 states and the District of Columbia. Use the histogram to determine the categories for the The World, and United States and create a Chloropleth map. Color the map according to the categories determined using dark to light shades of the same color. Complete analysis questions found on slide at the end.

Repeat the process Now follow the same process and create histogram for the World When you have created them, use them to create choropleth maps of both. You may print and use the sheet below, or find a outline map of each to print and do each separately.

Analysis Questions 1. Where in the world are the world’s Starbucks and why are they in those specific countries? Why is Starbucks such a good indicator of development? 2. How does the Starbucks World, USA, and TN Map illustrate the importance of understanding scale? Why is using the same break points (BIN) for each map not effective? 3. Why are there so few Starbucks in: a. Africa, b. Northern Europe, c. South Asia? 4. In terms of development and HDI. Explain where Starbucks are most likely to be appearing at a rapid rate over the next 10 years or so. Reference data gathered at http://hdr.undp.org/en/data/trends/ in your answer. Next, use the following slides to actually create your choropleth maps. You will need to create break points that give you 6 categories. (Change the BIN)

Analysis Questions Pt. 2 Print the maps you created (preferably in color). Now compare the world maps you created to the map located at: http://hdr.undp.org/en/data/map/ 5. What similarities or differences do you notice between your maps and the HDI map? (name specific countries that stand out and why) Next, look at the chart at: http://hdr.undp.org/en/statistics/hdi/ 6. What are the 3 dimensions and 4 indicators for HDI? 7. Keeping those in mind, which most likely correlates with the Starbucks exercise? Could an argument be made that they all do? Why? Staple together your answers, your maps (including a copy of the HDI map from the internet, and your original histograms. Turn in.
