the map that taste forgot

my latest "crime against cartography".

 

This monstrosity is a voronoi network from the world's airports, courtesy of OpenFlights (basically, each tile represents one airport, and all the points on the earth that are closest to that airport). The smaller the tiles, the more densely clustered the airports are.

 

They were coloured in in QGIS using the shapeburst fill and a suitably bad choice of colour gradient. This may be slightly less painful to view if you're colourblind.
