Micromaps (for example, see Carr and Pickle, 2010) display multiple maps on the same exhibit, with different geographic units highlighted in each map. A conditioned choropleth map (CCM) is a type of micromap with multiple maps arranged in a panel layout conditional on one or two categorical variables, with highlighted regions shaded according to a main variable of interest. CCMs have been used in a wide variety of applications (for example, see Carr and Pickle, 2010; Carr, Wallin, and Carr, 2000; Carr, White, and MacEachren, 2005; Friendly, 2007).
