Population Distribution

Creation Process:

• The map was created using GIS data in ArcGIS Pro, integrating population data from multiple sources, including Badan Pusat Statistik, Esri, and USGS.

• Population density was visualized using a choropleth method, with a gradient color scheme ranging from light pink (low density) to dark purple (high density).

• Proportional symbols represent city population totals, scaled by size to indicate varying population sizes across urban areas.

• Primary and secondary road networks were overlaid to provide context on infrastructure connectivity within Indonesia.

Visual Details:

• The map highlights densely populated areas, particularly on the island of Java, with large circles over cities such as Jakarta and Bandung, indicating high population concentrations.

• The gradient shading of provinces emphasizes regional differences in population density, showing lower densities in less developed or rural areas.

• Road networks are displayed with dashed lines, indicating major transportation routes and their role in connecting population centers.

• The legend provides clear symbology for population density and city sizes, enhancing the map's interpretability.
