For inspiration: Read Kevin Lynch’s “The City Image and its elements” (from “the Image of the City”, 1960), in which he identifies urban elements as edges, paths, districts, nodes, landmarks, etc….

Newsmap
Another type of mapping...
concept
Newsmap is an application that visually reflects the constantly changing landscape of the Google News news aggregator. A treemap visualization algorithm helps display the enormous amount of information gathered by the aggregator. Treemaps are traditionally space-constrained visualizations of information. Newsmap's objective takes that goal a step further and provides a tool to divide information into quickly recognizable bands which, when presented together, reveal underlying patterns in news reporting across cultures and within news segments in constant change around the globe.
