Unclassed choropleth maps

This technique assigns shadings proportional to the data values so that these choropleth maps do not have to classify the data. An unclassed choropleth map is similar to a classed choropleth map, except there are no specific classifications. These maps can show the same information of a classed map but it is harder to determine the accurate perception of the map, which is why this method of mapping has not been generally accepted. This map represents the  rates of illiteracy in France.
