Mapping Distance

This week we’ve considered ‘distance’ from different angles (so to speak):

  • as a property that can be preserved with projections
  • as a property that depends on modality and can be expressed with respect to time
  • as an attribute that seems more related to the subjective concept of proximity than the more definite property of length

Please find an example of a map that conveys a sense of distance and comment on it below.
