I like the idea of showing elevation using height, but since it's a state average, it seems weird to use the spacial area of the state. I did want to keep the approximate spacial locations. So I decided to try to make a tile map with the same information.&nbsp;While we could just use color to indicate elevation, it's ok to double-encode when we want to emphasize something.&nbsp;</P><P>Your challenge is to create a "3D" tile map of average elevation of U.S. States.
