Nice job of mapping from Newark
January 30th, 2006 by JTJ

Ryan Konig, of the Arizona Republic, alerts us to the following via the NICAR-L list:

“For anyone who hasn't seen it yet, the NJ Star Ledger
(Gebeloff  et others) has a two-day report on unsolved
homicides, “Getting away with murder,” here:

http://www.nj.com/news/murder/

Includes an attrition graphic, like the famous
“Napoleon's March to Moscow” graphic, that shows
outcomes of murder cases from 1998-2003, and an
embedded Google Map, from which the rest of us can
steal ideas, such as having buttons for visitors to
click to reposition the map to a specific community or
intersection.

The map will take anywhere from 10 seconds to a minute
to load into Explorer and about 1 or 2 seconds in
either Netscape or Firefox.
