Creating a bivariate choropleth map

Hello!

I would like to create a bivariate choropleth map, like the one done by @empet as shown here: https://plot.ly/~empet/14734.embed

However, as far as I can see on Google, there is no example of an approach to do this.

Can anyone shed some light on this?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hi @nd823,
Welcome to Plotly forum!!
Here https://plot.ly/~empet/15190
you find how to define a bivariate colorscale,
and a bivariate choropleth, in this notebook https://plot.ly/~empet/15191.

Much more simple is to use shapefiles, instead of topojson file, for the counties of an US state or other country.
This is an example of choropleth from a shapefile: https://plot.ly/~empet/15052.

Thank you so much, @empet, for getting back to me! I have been seeing a lot of cool stuff of yours around. :slight_smile:

I will work my way through the notebook and see how I fare!

Hello, thank you for your examples. I’m interested in use shapefiles to create bivariate choropleth map in ArcMAP. Unfortunately, your link with shapefile does not exist. Is there any possibility to get a new one? Regards.

@Sylwia I removed that notebook when Plotly Chroplethmapbox was introduced. Meanwhile another user asked for it and I reposted it here https://plot.ly/~empet/15354 You should adapt the code in this notebook to get a bivariate choropleth.

@empet Thank you for your response. I just started with python. Could you put the sample code to generate bivariate choropleth map directly using shapefile? It would help me a lot. Regards.

Hi @empet, I was looking for the shp file example. Could you please repost or perhaps share an example using the mapbox?

Hi, I was also looking for ways to create bivariate choropleth maps and I stumbled upon the example @empet provided in this thread. That helped me a lot, thank you.

Based on the example, i built a notebook reproducing the Texas example and adding another one. You can find it on Kaggle and on GitHub:

I am posting this here in case somebody else is searching for the same thing. I’m happy to get feedback on it.
