    Topographical research, in conjunction with the park's map I was hired to design.

    The theme park needed a unique revamp of its map after installing new attractions, and I was required to tour the grounds face-to-face, get a feel for the area in person, and compare it to their aerial bird's eye. While also implementing space for our sponsor's logos during the process.
