In section 2 the different uses for thematic maps are described: to provide specific information about particular locations, to provide general information about spatial patterns, and to compare patterns on two or more maps. The notion of a thematic map is described in section 1 and contrasted with the general-reference map, which focuses on geographic location as opposed to spatial pattern (e.g., a topographic map might show the location of rivers). A familiar example is the temperature map shown in daily newspapers the theme (or attribute) in this case is the predicted high temperature for the day. A thematic map (or statistical map) is used to display the spatial pattern of a theme or attribute.
