The decision to depict a topic as a map is tightly coupled to the chosen topic.
Not every topic can be incorporated into a map in a meaningful way. A tabular depiction
or a simple description in the shape of a text can be a sensible choice. However, once
the decision is set the topic has to be specified precisely. In addition, first
considerations have to be made concerning the data and the design of the map. Where do
I get necessary data from, which data do I need for this purpose and how should the map
look like in general?
