Summary
In this assignment, a set of four maps has been developed as a progression of maps
starting with the world map, narrowing down to a specific country, city and a localized area of
study. The main aim is to show the geographic and demographics of the selected areas.

city of interest in this assignment in Toronto, which is the capital of Canada. This city is

location for analysis. This is a mixed developed area that has residential as well as commercial
