Introduction
For this project you will use Google Slides to design your own street map. Your map can be of your neighborhood, your city, your state, etc. This does not have to be a very detailed or scaled map (see my example below); however, make sure you meet all the design requirements.
Project Steps
- Add layer.
- Import a CSV sheet into a layer. Rename the layer with the continent name.
- First prompt is discussing how to place the markers on the map, by title or by coordinates.
- Do by coordinates.
- Choose latitude and longitude (NOT longitude and latitude).
- Second prompt is discussing the name of the coordinate / marker.
- Choose the country name.
- Each layer has to have different color markers.
- Highlight a single layer by clicking the check boxes in the menu.
- Choose color by clicking the paint bucket in the menu OR by clicking on each individual marker on the map.
- Adding photos to each marker by clicking the camera.
- Google images – map or actual photograph.
- Changing a description.
- The current description is the coordinates.
- Change the description to a description of the country.
- What it’s known for – exports
- What the land is like
- Population
