I’m still working with DoD’s Operation Enduring Freedom data. Here, I decided to plot the number of soldier causalities by home state using Processing. The tutorial I’m following is from Ben Fry’s book Visualizing Data.
The map includes a mouse rollover function. I like the function because it allows viewers to interact. Though, I think there is a slight lag when the mouse hovers. I’m still in the process of learning the program, but it is a lot of fun. Next, I’d like to divide the map into red and blue states.

*You will need Java to view the mapped data.
