Web and multimedia have contributed to the mapping of assets to make a great teaching tool to explain situations sometimes complex. Animations, multimedia add-ons, interactivity with the reader, make them teaching tools of great utility. The proof with three examples of maps devoted to current confits. 3 particularly spectacular talking cards.

1) Cyberthreat Real Time Map

It is a silent and violent war that takes place every day on computer networks. Cyberthreat Real Time Map is a 3-D world map developed by one of the IT security giants that captures and allows real-time visualization of ongoing computer attacks. The reader can interact with the card by manipulating it with the tip of the mouse to focus its interest on a country or a place. Spectacular.

2) Liveumap

Another map of the planet that vibrates to the rhythm of conflicts in the four corners of the globe. LiveuMap offers a real-time map that shows all the ongoing conflicts geolocalised and linked to news reports from major international agencies. Eastern countries, the Middle East, refugees, Syria … everything is there. Each element is represented by a small badge that informs about the nature of the event. One click and you get related information. A bit anxiogenic, but terribly effective. LiveuMap also offers applications for your iOS or Android smartphone.

3) ResourceTrade

It is one of the main causes of the conflicts that shake our planet: international trade. ResourceTrade is a spectacular interactive map to study international trade and trade. The card uses lines of different sizes and colors to represent exports and imports from different countries to each other. A system of filters by criteria above the map allows for refined results in a country, region, sector or period. By passing the mouse button on one of the lines, the map displays all the linked digits. Useful. Link: ResourceTrade
