Abstract
The dot map is a long-established method for representing population distribution. The preparation of dot maps by both manual and computer-assisted means is examined; together with the availability of suitable Census data for the compilation of a dot map at medium scale. A more detailed account is given of the methods used in compiling a dot map of population in 1971 in the Portsmouth area, as a supplement to the Atlas of Portsmouth. Some possibilities for using the dot map as a basis for computer-drawn density maps are considered.
