Opsies. I didn't realize the image will be scaled down so much so I am posting here a link to the original:

wow, thats amazing to see all the teams spread out and concentrated in so many different areas. now if someone were to make a map with all the canadian teams on it ;) it would be so difficult to scale though, as we only have huge concentration in GTA, and then dots of teams around the country and only in some provinces.

YEAH! look at west palm beach and 179 all right there on the most eastern part of florida, YA!

Re: pic: USA Teams
 

Wow. What did you use to make that?

Re: pic: USA Teams
 

perl (what else is there ??? :ahh: )

Re: pic: USA Teams
 

Could you make one(or someone else) in svg? Then you could look at the entire U.S., or just zoom in on one state.

Re: pic: USA Teams
 

I can see my house... er, team.

That's really interesting to see the spread of all the different teams.

Re: pic: USA Teams
 

Piotr, awesome job. Again. Is there anything you can't do in Perl?

Re: pic: USA Teams
 

If anyone cares, I have put up images for each state with the teams labeled at http://users.wpi.edu/~piotrm/first/maps/states/big/ and smaller versions of the same stuff at http://users.wpi.edu/~piotrm/first/maps/states/small/.

I shall have to look into svg sometime.

you're missing at least 1 team in NJ. 816 out of WestHampton. (or it's in the worng place and I missed it). They should be right in the same area as team 87.

This is definitely good work and very interesting. Would you consider posting the source for this?

It would be interesting to run this for each FIRST competition year and see the spread over time. (and to see the relationship between new regionals and teams in those areas).

Re: pic: USA Teams
 

Hmmmm, I don't see my team.

Team 121 from Rhode Island. Should be there right underneath 1350 (Go Rambot! :cool: ) We occupy The Island....

MrToast, who can't see his house... :(

Re: pic: USA Teams
 

it's cool to see the various concentrations throughout the country, and how all along the interstate in the northeast there are teams. I think we need to start naming the 4 major "belts" (Northeast, the two in california, and Indiana/Michigan) My suggestion for Northeast? the "style belt"

With FIRST, its all about style! In the northeast, we are alllll style.-Andy Grady

Nice job. I like maps, and I especially like useful maps. :) I have a question though- is there any way to spread teams out? In Phoenix we have several large suburbs instead of lots of smaller towns, and the teams stack up so much you wouldn't have any idea that there were more than a handle of teams by looking at the map. Also is there a way to make the state boundaries darker on the state maps? Just a few suggestions. Thank you for the supurb maps! :)

Re: pic: USA Teams
 

This is very cool! Would it be possible for you to post an even higher resolution map than the one in the web link? (Entire US)

Thanks! Great Work!
