GIS 4930 - Open Source Web Mapping

This week was involved in creating a web map using open source resources. Leaflet, a java mapping API, was used to create a live webmap stored on my UWF web drive. As this was practice to learn a bit about how to use leaflet with mapping tiles stored on mapbox, we were provided with extant tilesets and simply had to create an html file that would be able to load them properly as well as some bits of map functionality through plugin calls.

The map created shows Pensacola, FL and includes indicators for food deserts as well as for fictional (I believe) frisbee golf courses.
