This map is different from the Image:H1N1 map.svg map, which is a map by case type, this is a map by number of deaths.

It might be good to readjust the scale a bit, now that I think it over...

Can someone update this for the Dominican Republic? 70.29.208.129 ( talk) 08:40, 6 June 2009 (UTC) reply

I am in totally disagree with the used colors in this map. Is a convention that the gray color (or white) must be used as base. The argument for using gray because the deaths were painted in black is easily refutable, all the scales of all the colors finish with black!

So, I recommend a scale in violet, something like this:

Can you come up with a longer scale? It has to have atleast 200+ deaths 70.29.208.129 ( talk) 04:47, 6 June 2009 (UTC) reply

There is the unused blue scale...

  200,000+ total cases

  50,000+ total cases

  10000+ total cases

  2000+ total cases

  500+ total cases

  100+ total cases

  20+ total cases

  5+ total cases

  1+ total cases

Yes, the scale that I suggested must to be longer, but I don't know how to make them... =(

The color blue has to be avoided because it can be confused with water, and talk of more than 10,000 deaths in one country is a bit apocalyptic, as an example, the map of cases only talks about 5,000. -- 201.255.152.243 ( talk) 23:11, 6 June 2009 (UTC) reply

I was planning for a Spanish Flu scale disaster, so that there are no arguments on colors if the outbreak turned especially deadly. 70.29.208.129 ( talk) 08:36, 7 June 2009 (UTC) reply

Well, working with Inkscape I did this scale. If you like it I can edit the map with this colors:

I know the current scale works that way, but that's why I made a suggestion for a revised scaling... so that it's more like doubling (0/1+/5+/10+/20+/50+/100+/200+/500+/1000+/2000+/5000+/10000+) or the "5x scale" (0/1+/5+/20+/100+/500+/2000+/10000+)... there's always the magnitude scale (0/1+/10+/100+/1000+/10000+) and the scale used on the other maps (0/1+/5+/50+/500+/5000+) ... after some thought, I believe the jump from 10y->50y is a bit large, so modify it to 10y->20y->50y 70.29.208.129 ( talk) 08:41, 7 June 2009 (UTC) reply

So will the color scale be changed? The grey is very difficult to discern what number of deaths the shades on the map correspond with. 71.101.144.182 ( talk) 23:37, 7 September 2009 (UTC) reply
