Symbolization

Symbolization is a cartographic method within the broader process of map compilation that differentiates itself by systematically encoding geographic phenomena into visual variables—such as shape, size, color, and orientation—within map composition to convey spatial data representation, statistical mapping, topographic cartography, and web map design through semiotic structures that link symbols to their real-world referents.
