Good Map infographic

I think a couple of you guys are going to use a map in your infographic, and I found this infographic. I feel as if it uses maps very effectively because it has a varied color palette and icon legend. As opposed to the map river map that we looked at 2 weeks ago which had a very homogenous color palette and no legend.

From Good Magazine, a visually outstanding infographic

It is easy to read, simple and with a wonderful symbology: The Haitian Relief.

Another wonderful iconography finding!

This time the project is called NounProject. Really cool!

Iconography: culinary tools.

Lovely use of iconography. Check this out.

Interesting Data Set

As always, the New York Times provides us with interesting formation in a clean and easy to read manner. Upon reading it, I was wondering why they didn't turn this into an infographic with the skills that we all know they have over there.
