What are good strategies to design an airline route map? To answer this question, we looked at hundreds of airlines map from the past
Segments of the map such as whole continents can be brought closer together, selectively scaled, or displaced to emptier areas of the map, to open up map surface space in a manner that is convenient for the network being drawn
