Been a little obsessed lately with mapping in crochet. Here’s bathymetry for Lake Mendota in worsted weight wool and acrylic. Each stitch roughly equals 300 sq meters, and each layer represents a depth change of 10 meters. #gischat

90% of Wisconsinites live within a 30-minute drive of a Culver's location, and 62% of us live within 10 minutes of one. Use this map I made to see if you're in the 10% of us who live in a "Culver's Desert." jsonline.com/story/life/be-w…
Road trip season? No worries, we mapped out the states you should make sure to stop in.

The Wisconsin analysis you've been waiting for: 67% of us live within a 10-minute drive of a @KwikTrip location. And almost all live within 30 minutes of one. Culver's, Kohl's, and more in my final report for the @journalsentinel:

There are many more graphics in the story, but the one I'm proudest of is this one. The reporters working on the Wisconsin Wonk project care deeply about using data to tell stories about our shared identity in this state, which unique and uplifting. jsonline.com/story/life/be-w…

A heavy lift - or should we say a long haul - by my colleagues Ari Brown and Tyler Byrnes analyzes state DOT data to show how the quality of local roads in Wisconsin has modestly declined since 2010. Especially good information on the challenges in MKE and SE WI. Worth a read-->

These areas of Wisconsin are likely to flip parties under new electoral maps. Do you live in one of them? By @ndrewhahn: jsonline.com/story/news/poli…

New WI Senate and Assembly maps mean many are forecasting future majorities in the state Legislature, but whose representation could actually change because of redistricting? Turns out, quite a lot of people! jsonline.com/story/news/poli…
