The map above shows an example of how we can combine maps and data using GIS. The background is a satellite map of a city. The red stars show grocery stores that opened in 2007, and the blue circles show stores that opened in 2008.

Hi. Although you submitted a text, you did not submit any questions related to it. This prevents me from being able to give you any answers. However, when searching for your text on the internet, I was able to find a question that used that text as a basis. This question asked you to show what conclusion you could draw about the population of the area presented by the map. this question also showed the map and that map showed more blue stars than red stars. If that's the case for you, I hope the answer below will help you.

According to the map we can conclude that the population of the region increased between 2007 and 2008.

Explanation:

As we saw in the text presented in the question above, the blue stars symbolize the grocery stores that opened in 2008, while the red stars represent the grocery stores that opened in 2007. Since the amount of blue stars is much greater than the amount of red stars, we can conclude that the population of that region grew during that two years. The population increase created a demand for new grocery stores, which were able to supply this population and efficiently. In summary, we can consider that the larger the population, the greater the amount of groceries needed.
