Dot Distribution Map

A dot distribution map is used to show how much of something is in a particular area. Dot Distribution maps are commonly used to show such things as population, but this map shows the number of plant species in certain areas of Europe. This Dot Distribution map also shows the number of species by changing the color of the dot, while many other Dot Distribution maps just intensify one color if the area has more cases.
