Abstract
Maps are visual analogues, which show geographic facts in their spatial context. Patterns of shape and color are not perceived by their static measurements but dynamically; thereby they offer a visual equivalent of the interplay of physical forces expressed through size, distances, directions, convexity and concavity, etc. Spatial orientation affects the identification of shapes and their interrelations. Pictorial means of rendering the third dimension and problems arising from generalized abstraction are briefly discussed.
