Terrain Visualization Lab 3

 

In this lab I worked with terrain of maps. Specifically with methods on how to use hillshade to show the topography and terrain features of the natural landscape. For my map that is shown above I chose to use a traditional hillshade features since it worked best with a transparent layer that shows landcover over the topography. Though the multidirectional was viable ai found that with a layer over it it wasn't as visually pleasing. So I managed to create a more visually appealing map with the other hillshade and using the essential map elements to create balance and a good hierarchical structure.
