I made this map/infographic with ArcGIS Pro software and Adobe Illustrator for finishing. I started with the US Bureau of the Census population aggregated at the county level. Next, I computed the shortest distance drive paths from each county seat to the intersections of major highways and the centerline of the eclipse, which I digitized. From this I apply a distance-decay model that assumes a high estimate of 2% visitation from 200 miles away and a low estimate of 0.5% visitation. I apply this model for each county, weighing distance and population counts, and derive these estimates.
