US_Catholic_Dioceses_and_Names.png


Summary

Description
English: This is a map of all Catholic Latin-Rite dioceses in the United States. I created the map using Python and geojson.io. I used OpenStreetMap and Wikipedia data to revise diocese boundaries and plot cathedral locations. (If this use of OpenStreetMap and Wikipedia data requires that I publish the map under the CC-BY-SA license instead of the CC-BY license, please let me know.)

White lines are diocesan boundaries; black lines are provincial boundaries; and diocese names are in white text.

An interactive version of this map can be found here: https://kburchfiel.github.io/us_diocese_mapper/revised_diocese_map.html
