Visual layout design, typography, signs and symbology, data management and geographic data representation are all elements that play a vital role in designing maps.
The map design process and elements used can differ, i.e. whether the map in question is required to be artistic or more traditional, illustrative, or informative. Effective map design combines elements effectively to convey a required message through the use of distinct colours and tones.
