The length of the line and its initial placement are determined by the amount of rainfall measured and where it fell. The final placement and color of each line are determined by the influence of urban water consumers. The more water a city uses, the stronger its pull on the rainfall. As rainfall is pulled farther from where it fell, it changes color from blue to black.”</p>http://journal.milesbarger.com/post/5805212407http://journal.milesbarger.com/post/5805212407Tue, 24 May 2011 10:17:00 -0800infographicsdigital mediadata visualization
