Can you identify the spatial object having this footprint?
Update (2010-06-18): Welcome James Fee blog readers. I've updated the picture. Code to produce it is at http://bitbucket.org/sgillies/plot-pac-n/src. I've made use of a handy shapefile wrapper for OGR and modified it to provide JSON objects.

Would it be the PAC-10/11/12/14 if a Utah school joins?

A lazy geographer using a lat/long "projection" ?

"A" Utah school, Mark?! Regard the color of that polygon. But, yes, that would be the new Pac-N.
Brian, my (anonymous) desktop GIS doesn't do antialiasing or floating point pixel positions like matplotlib or mapnik (AGG) and so the census polygons looked like crap in UTM 12. I'll see if I can't make something more purty at halftime.

I see a red person with a small nose pointing a large gun eastward.
Or maybe I just see a rorschach.

Kirk, I see the old Pac-10 opening a Utah (2nd best Pac-N team since 2003) shaped can of whoop-ass on the SEC and Big 10.
