After determining the data contained in a map, you can symbolize map elements based on data attributes, map purpose, and scale. This involves configuring thematic maps and setting marker styles for points, lines, and areas to clearly and aesthetically present the characteristics of the map.
No thematic content exists in isolation; it must be anchored to fundamental geographic references. Base maps typically include: point/line/area layers for administrative divisions; basic geographic elements like highways, railways, rivers, and graticules. In practical mapping, you can select appropriate base elements to create a balanced base map that highlights thematic features while maintaining overall harmony.
