Dot distribution maps highlight where particular data characteristics occur. These maps utilize dots or various other markers to represent the number of occurrences of a certain data characteristic in a location or area. Each dot or symbol used on the map may represent a single entity (one dot = one person) or a group (one dot = 1000 people). The map above shows acres of farmland with 1 dot equalling 100,000 acres.
