This week's Maps of the Week features no Google Maps based applications.

This calendar week I was real impressed alongside ii maps that await at the thorny number of immigration in addition to refugees. Whatever your sentiment on immigration the stories of migrants deserve to locomote told in addition to I haven't seen the migrant's storey ameliorate told than inward the Global Mail's novel mapped interactive written report on Hussain's Journey.
Filmmaker Matt Abbott gave Muhammad Hussain, a Hazara Pakistani most to ready out on a journeying to assay asylum inward Australia, a video photographic television camera in addition to asked him to cinema his experiences. The Global Mail's mapped written report starts off alongside Matt Abbot's ain recordings of Muhammad Hussain's household unit of measurement in addition to life inward Karachi.
When Muhammad ready off on his unsafe journeying to Commonwealth of Australia he took over the filming himself. The mapped written report of this journeying allows yous to sentiment his experiences inward condom houses, inward smugglers’ homes in addition to the in conclusion stretch across the body of body of water inward a rickety boat.
Since the kickoff of the Syrian civil country of war at to the lowest degree ii 1 yard m refugees pick out fled the province in addition to to a greater extent than than 5 1 yard m pick out been displaced internally. Most of the refugees pick out fled to neighboring countries. This humanitarian crisis has placed a huge burden on Jordan, Lebanon, Turkey, Republic of Iraq in addition to Iraqi Kurdistan.
Al Jazeera has created a mapped visualization to assistance bring the scale of rehousing 7 1 yard m people. Where would 7 1 yard m displaced Syrians fit? allows yous to overlay the surface area needed to rehouse 7 1 yard m people on whatsoever location inward the United States.
