Homework 2: Cartography ​

Activity 1: Creating Spaces ​

Find a dataset that is semantically rich.

  • You can use Kaggle and download a CSV dataset OR upload your own dataset.
  • Click on New Space on the top right corner to upload the dataset.
  • Choose the type (CSV/XLSX, Text, Floors).
  • Label clusters, tune axes, and add metadata layers.

An image of the Create a Space page in Mantis that gives you the option to create a space with data from CSV/Excel files, Text, Floors, Web Search content, or third-party integrations (MultiMedia).

  1. Analyze the picture of your map.

  2. How has mapping the data through Mantis allowed for a clearer understanding of your dataset?
