"steers people toward smaller, harder-to-find eateries" current trend of maps.

Project proposal: Food & Mapping

Food is an important part of culture, Apple Pie - America, Fish and Chips - New Zealand, Sushi - Japan and the list goes on.

I propose to look at Auckland through my stomach. I propose to map out the eating places in Auckland and categorise them in as many ways as possible to see if a pattern emerges. After all supply and demand go hand in hand and whatever pattern emerges out of this will tell tales of the population that demands it! I don't know where this project will go but this is step one.

Step one: map out food places
Step two: analyse
Step three: conclusion leads to an intervention?
