For the second part of this weeks lab I had to create a bivariate choropleth map comparing obesity and activity in USA. For the first part of the lab I had to break the obesity percentages and activity percentages into 3 quantile classes. for obesity I had made 3 categories, A,B,C, and for activity I separated the percentages into 1,2,3. To get my quantile class breaks I used the graduated symbology with 3 classes using the quantile method for my class breaks. I then calculated the values into my new class activity and class obesity fields. I then made a 3 field to combine my class, creating 9 classes.
To get my color scheme I first chose the purple single hue sequential color scheme from color brewer. I then went to the color wheel and chose a slightly off complimentary color, going with a gold color. I then had to mix the colors to fill in the rest of the colors, resulting in the legend I have in my map presented above.
