london transit map

Probably one of the most successful and famous diagrams is the London Transit Map (Philadelphia may have actually been first?). I think a more effective name for this type of diagram is "information graphics". Though it may not be as accurate as a usual map (by our standards), the information is based on perception and is very easy to read.

One Of My Early Diagrams

From Systems Sites and Building class last year. I diagrammed how I receive energy from the sun, a solar map if you will: link

I tried using pictures to increase legibility. Not sure if it helped or just made it worse.
