Abstract

An overview is conducted on the vast area of visualization when applied to icons and their application is map-type displays. The early history and motivation of the use of icons is examined. Displaying complex information is surveyed in multiple areas. The possible use of animation is both researched and hypothesized for application in military scenarios.
