This illustration, created by Terence Teo, represents Iran's population density on a three-dimensional map. To do this, Terence extracted the data available at Kontur Population with which it generates columns using a programme, with a height that represents the population density at each point.
This map of Iran shows the different population peaks, among which Tehran, the country's capital, stands out with more than 12 million inhabitants. The illustration also shows other important peaks in Mashhad, Isfahan, Shiraz, Tabriz, Ahvaz and Kermanshah.
