Animas City – 1910 to 2014
Taking a photo from the location of a historic 1910 image, I used a javascript slider to compile this before and after comparison of town. I kept with black and white to match the available image. Use the slider to compare the images. On mobile, tap the image where you want the slider to be, or use the show before and show after buttons.
Using public school stats, I created this interactive data visualization to spot trends in crime at area schools. This is also a mobile friendly tool.
