Unstandardized choropleth map

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Choropleth.gif
An unstandardized choropleth map is one where the data is not areally averaged. This particular map shows the average water use by state of the entire US. This data might be misleading for some viewers who do not understand that the data is not averaged by population, which would create a far different map.
