Map

A map is a symbolic depiction highlighting relationships between elements of some space, such as objects, regions, and themes.

Many maps are static two-dimensional, geometrically accurate (or approximately accurate) representations of three-dimensional space, while others are dynamic or interactive, even three-dimensional. Although most commonly used to depict geography, maps may represent any space, real or imagined, without regard to context or scale; e.g. brain mapping, DNA mapping and extraterrestrial mapping.

Although the earliest maps known are of the heavens, geographic maps of territory have a very long tradition and exist from ancient times. The word "map" comes from the medieval Latin Mappa mundi, wherein mappa meant napkin or cloth and mundi the world. Thus, "map" became the shortened term referring to a two-dimensional representation of the surface of the world.

Geographic maps

Cartography or map-making is the study and practice of crafting representations of the Earth upon a flat surface (see History of cartography), and one who makes maps is called a cartographer.

    Put your finger on a map
    And that's where I am
    Draw a picture of the world
    And that's where I am
    Now and beyond
    It's a long time to be gone
    I'm movin' on
    I'm movin' on
    Put the needle to the groove
    And listen to this
    When you see your speakers move
    Then you feel bliss
    Now and beyond
    It's a long time to be gone
    I'm movin' on
    (He's movin' on)
    I'm movin' on
    (He's movin' on)
    Put your finger on a map
    And that's where I am
    Draw a picture of the world
    And that's where I am
    Now and beyond
    It's a long time to be gone
    I'm movin' on
    (He's movin' on)
    I'm movin' on
