I think that Prism 3D is a very good way to show the big difference beetween values.

It's the best way to show where is the higher value, the lower, to compare countries.

For this, Prism color map is better than chorpoleth map.

For a deep analysis, we have to pay attention to the data value.
But it's a different use.

For me, the technique depends on what you search and want to show with the map.

For my students, it's their work to choose the good technique of vizualisation. There is no perfect technique, it depends on datas and what you search.

Thanks for this stimulating blog and engine !!!
