Dot Distribution Maps



dot distribution map, or dot density map, uses a dot to symbolize a point of an occurring feature or phenomenon. Spatial patterns are represented by relying on visual scatter to determine the density of dots. Dot maps use dots in an area to show size and frequency.  The map above shows the township population in Ohio, where one dot is equal to 100 people.
