Geocommons Maker! Maps
FortiusOne's GeoCommons have produced three new Google Maps to show areas around the world that have been affected by the current outbreak of H1N1 Swine Flu and areas that might be prone to the outbreak.
The first map (pictured above) has a really useful interactive timeline that shows the spread of reported cases throughout the world. Press play on the timeline and the map will animate. It is also possible to drag the timeline to view data for any given day.
Swine Flu Cases and Measures by Country
The second Google Map shows what different countries are doing to avoid the spread of the outbreak in their country. The map also shows the number of swine flu cases that each country has encountered so far.
Air Passengers between the US and Mexico
The third map from Geocommons shows the number of air passengers between the US and Mexico. The number of passengers is shown on the map by the size of the map marker. It is possible to click on the markers to get more detailed information.
Up2Maps Swine Flu Map
This is the first heat map of the outbreak that I have seen. The colour on the map represents the percentage of the world's possible cases of Swine Flu that each country has.
A heat map gives a very good quick overall impression of which countries are being affected by the outbreak and by how much.
Up2Nets have also produced another heat map of the outbreak called H1N1 Swine Flu Infected and Possible Infected
OpenFlu Map
OpenFlu have produced a simple Google Map that show the current cases of Swine Flu around the world. OpenFlu are also presenting the data in table form, so users have two ways to visualise the scale of the outbreak.
The OpenFlu data is being collated from The Guardian and a number of other sources.
