This map was designed specifically to be easy to read on a website. The map is simple and clear. The map portrays the time zone theme with easy to understand graphics, insets, and text. It is superior to many other web-maps in its use of symbolization to convey a simple theme. The circular symbols convey four major regional time divisions from the east coast to the west coast.
