Interface and data views

I've dressed up my design a little, just to give my project a bit of design. I've also added a few pages that outline other problems that I may try to solve. For the final object of this project, I may show how data can be displayed in a few different ways. I've used the Drawing API to create "map tacks" on each county (see page 2). This might be useful to add another layer of information on top of a colored map.

Here's the latest iteration: map_pages

I'd also like to point out, that it appears that I've achieved almost all of the concept notes I outlined three weeks ago. I do need to review the accessibility requirements and find how those fit in. I do see using the output area as a text-equivilant to the visual data displayed on the map. I would like to see if I can make the captions accessible for text-readers, but I'm not sure how that will turn out since these are loaded dynamically. It would be sweet to learn a few new accessibility techniques.
