UPDATE: <\/strong><\/em>New 2021 map at the end of the blog adding in two new National Parks.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Have you ever wondered where is the nearest National Park?<\/p>\n

That would be a good map on its own wouldn’t it?<\/p>\n

But then the geographer’s mind starts to wander around. What would make this map more interesting? Why not take it a step further and show some of the demographic relationships for people living around each park?<\/p>\n

Processes & tools<\/h2>\n

Use ArcGIS Pro<\/a> to run the Thiessen (Voronoi) polygon<\/a> tool (this requires an A<\/a>dvanced<\/a> License<\/a>) on information from the National Park Service. Then give the map more purpose by enriching<\/a>\u00a0it to help understand the circumstances for people living around each park.<\/p>\n

We will be using Pro for the Thiessen polygon tool; information enrichment (this requires an ArcGIS Online organizational account<\/a>); and final layout of the map.<\/p>\n

There will a quick sidestep using a graphic design software to enhance the basemap (to obtain a cutout effect); but then it’s back to Pro to Georeference<\/a> that layer and finish the final design.<\/p>\n

Map muse<\/h2>\n

Since this map is about National Parks, why not take those beautiful vintage posters made in the 1930’s and 40’s by the WPA (more on that below) and give this map a nod to their past?<\/p>\n

Don’t you love these posters? Here are a few I’ve collected through my travels:<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":572532,"id":572532,"title":"eem_2019_NParks_14","filename":"eem_2019_NParks_14-e1564595319230.jpg","filesize":93816,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/07\/eem_2019_NParks_14-e1564595319230.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/eem_2019_nparks_14","alt":"","author":"8492","description":"","caption":"Postcards I've collected along the way.","name":"eem_2019_nparks_14","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":0,"date":"2019-07-24 20:40:40","modified":"2019-07-31 20:36:26","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":600,"height":546,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/07\/eem_2019_NParks_14-213x200.jpg","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/07\/eem_2019_NParks_14-e1564595319230.jpg","medium-width":287,"medium-height":261,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/07\/eem_2019_NParks_14-e1564595319230.jpg","medium_large-width":600,"medium_large-height":546,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/07\/eem_2019_NParks_14-e1564595319230.jpg","large-width":600,"large-height":546,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/07\/eem_2019_NParks_14-e1564595319230.jpg","1536x1536-width":600,"1536x1536-height":546,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/07\/eem_2019_NParks_14-e1564595319230.jpg","2048x2048-width":600,"2048x2048-height":546,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/07\/eem_2019_NParks_14-511x465.jpg","card_image-width":511,"card_image-height":465,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/07\/eem_2019_NParks_14-1187x1080.jpg","wide_image-width":1187,"wide_image-height":1080}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/07\/eem_2019_NParks_14-e1564507034447.jpg"},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

TIP:<\/strong> These posters can be good sources for color palettes and are wonderful for choropleth maps and displaying hierarchy. Each one has five to eight colors, only, and are beautiful color combinations that have withstood the test of time. Use this tool<\/strong><\/a> to sample colors on the computer (you will LOVE this tool).<\/p>\n

Who made these?<\/h2>\n

President Franklin D. Roosevelt created the Works Progress Administration (WPA) in 1935 (renamed the Work Projects Administration in 1939) during some of bleakest years of the Great Depression<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It was one the most ambitious programs of the New Deal<\/a> and it employed millions of Americans in public\u00a0works projects building new roads, bridges, and buildings.<\/p>\n

The WPA also had a Federal Art Program<\/a> that employed out-of-work artists to provide art for buildings and public spaces. From August 29, 1935 until June 30, 1943 thousands of writers, painters, actors, and musicians were hired and they created numerous sculptures, easel paintings, murals, graphic art, posters, photography, museum and theater design, and arts & crafts within cities and communities creating some of the most meaningful pieces of public art in the United States.<\/p>\n

From 1938 to 1941 the WPA created a series of posters for the National Parks and these are now classic graphics of some of America’s most beloved geographies.\u00a0These artists made over 35,000 different types posters to promote safety, health, education, theater, and travel.<\/p>\n

Click<\/a> on the picture below and step back in time, for just a moment, and see how these artists are working.\u00a0 I was even able to find the poster hanging on the wall. See it in color!<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":576542,"id":576542,"title":"eem_2019_NParks_58","filename":"eem_2019_NParks_58.jpg","filesize":708823,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/07\/eem_2019_NParks_58.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/arcgis-living-atlas\/mapping\/where-is-the-nearest-national-park\/eem_2019_nparks_58","alt":"","author":"8492","description":"Picture: https:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/wiki\/File:Selinkoff-WPA-Poster-Workshop.jpg\n\nPoster: https:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/wiki\/File:The_national_parks_preserve_wild_life,_WPA_poster,_ca._1938.jpg","caption":"Alice Selinkoff and unidentified colleague working in the WPA Federal Art Project poster workshop in New York City, April 23,1939.","name":"eem_2019_nparks_58","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":575732,"date":"2019-07-30 17:38:14","modified":"2019-07-30 17:48:34","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":4189,"height":2245,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/07\/eem_2019_NParks_58-213x200.jpg","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/07\/eem_2019_NParks_58.jpg","medium-width":464,"medium-height":249,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/07\/eem_2019_NParks_58.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":412,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/07\/eem_2019_NParks_58.jpg","large-width":1920,"large-height":1029,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/07\/eem_2019_NParks_58.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":823,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/07\/eem_2019_NParks_58.jpg","2048x2048-width":2048,"2048x2048-height":1098,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/07\/eem_2019_NParks_58-826x443.jpg","card_image-width":826,"card_image-height":443,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/07\/eem_2019_NParks_58-1920x1029.jpg","wide_image-width":1920,"wide_image-height":1029}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/07\/eem_2019_NParks_58.jpg"},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

Give purpose to the map<\/h2>\n

For this map let’s try to highlight the people who live around each park and the potential barriers for them in visiting:<\/p>\n

How many people live around their closest National Park?<\/p>\n

How many households are there?<\/p>\n

How many households are in poverty?<\/p>\n

How many households are without a car?<\/p>\n

The quickest way to find what you need is to use the Search box (top right) to quickly find the appropriate layer vintage.\u00a0 Next uncheck the boxes for the dates you do not need.

The results from the enrichment show interesting patterns and trends – too many to mention them all – but a few jumped out:<\/p>\n

The communities and reservations around Petrified Forest National Park in the Southwest have a high rate of poverty and are without cars.<\/p>\n

The area around my neck of the woods (pun intended) near Sequoia National Park also have a high rate of poverty, but most households have cars.<\/p>\n

Kobuk Valley and Gates of the Arctic, both National Parks in Alaska, have low amounts of households but those households also have a high rates of poverty.<\/p>\n
