This is a method of dividing the data displayed in a choropleth map. Equal interval simply divides the data into equal sized subranges. For example, if your data ranged from 0 to 300, and you specified three classes 0 to 300, the ranges would be 0–100, 101–200, and 201–300. See also Natural breaks (or Jenks) and Quantile.
