Will definitely try to see if I can find a high resolution dataset for other similar regions.

Thanks for all the helpful information about the right way to cite images like this. Will keep it in mind for the future for sure.

For the other variables, I think it might be possible to try overlaying this in someway on an orographic map. Might be an interesting idea. For what it's worth you can still get a general feel for the elevation based on the readings. Since this is largely a mountainous area, the higher temperature areas on the map are the valleys and in between you have lower values wherever we have mountains.

At first I was surprised that lower income means lower student debt.

But it makes total sense.

If you have more student debt, you studied longer and now have a higher paying job. The system is working. If it was inverted, and lower incomes were correlated with more student debt, I'd be worried.

Do wiki admins have jobs as dog walkers or is that only reddit?

My friend in 7th grade was banned from the computer room after getting caught changing the John Muir page. He changed “built a large wooden bridge” to built a large wooden dick. The principle gave his parents a print out of the screen shot. I think he’s still got it.

Very very cool.

Do you think there's be a good way to also convey altitude proper (or something else that may be interesting like humidity or precipitation) on the same graph without completely ruining the look?

I get that this was just a fun thing to print out for this sub, and everyone appreciates it including me -- this is as much to pick on everyone here as much as you, and is to keep in mind for future posts and anything you want people to notice. The source says the dataset is CC-BY, and that means attribution must be made on derivative works. Obviously nobody will hunt you down, but it's still important, especially for a visualization this cool. So that idiots online don't endlessly reproduce this image without attribution (which is common on Reddit), you'll want to include text of this sort in the image:

• Name/organization/site/URL, to assign author credit (optional)
• Original publication linkback of visualization (e.g., this reddit thread -- optional)
• Your copyright/copyleft (such as CC-BY-SA-4.0, since the original dataset is not copyrighted and not share-alike.
• Date or year of visualization creation
• For good graph practice in general: Date or date range of data collected; and you should put the title text on the graph, and also label the x- and y- axes as longitude and latitude.
• Primary citation: You can do "Authors, "Title" (Date)" or just "10.5194/essd-13-2801-2021" or whatever, as long as it's attributed.

Finally, a plot true to the name of the sub. Would love to see other similarly diverse/sized areas if possible to compare.

Ah good call. Wish I could change it

Just double checked. I remember reading it was 3 BILLION pounds, so I checked and just read a Wikipedia post saying it was 2.6 billion in 2006. So either way, Wisconsin kicks their ass. I’m in Wisconsin. I’ll walk down the road and give those girls a pep talk. Money won’t buy you happiness, but it will buy you more cows, which is kinda the same thing.

>Of all places, Venezuela has been on a cheese revolution since the beginning of this century, producing in 2020 3x the amount it did in 2000. We were thrilled to see that the country with usually the most troubling news in the region is actually LatAm's 2nd largest cheese producer and surpassed Switzerland (the cheese homeland) in production for the first time in 2009.

TBF my guess would be this is partially if not primarily because of the price caps the (economically illiterate) government put on milk (and other goods) during hyperinflation...if your a milk producer and you can't sell it for a profit then you're better of turning it into cheese instead, which you then can increase in price to go along with inflation...the government likely indirectly caused this in a not-good way. Also cheese keeps better than milk and can be exported easier...shocking. Venezuela's socialist government has completely mismanaged their economy through dumb policies with bad back-end consequences.

excerpt: "The government bought one of the country’s largest milk companies last month to stem a common practice by farmers of selling milk for cheese, which is subject to fewer price controls than milk, or shipping it to neighboring Colombia."

>Switzerland (the cheese homeland)

I believe that cheese is much older than Switzerland, by several millennia

What about the rest of the world? Why indicate “8 European countries off the chart” as if they are the only ones? For example, Australian production is about 48 thousand tonnes p.a.

Why? Wisconsin cheese is awesome.

then it would need a citation

I don’t know about the quality of Argentinian cheese but I really don’t think Wisconsin should count.

You really need to say “Italian Alps” since most of your audience won’t know where this is.

And Wisconsin more than doubles Argentina.

And that's probably 13 feet at low tide, 7 feet at high tide.

Argentina produced 437,000 tonnes in 2021; the UK produced 504,000 tonnes (so per person Argentina is higher).

Edit: Denmark produced more than Argentina at 454,000 tonnes, but with a population of just 5.9million (less than 1/7 Argentina's population)

Quality mates?

Argentina actually produces more than Denmark and the UK. For some reason Czechia’s also left off.
