Planimetric Map

This is an example of a planimetric map of the city of Baltimore in a series of maps from 1977-1989.  It is a good example of a planimetric map because it is in a two-dimensional form and does not show an sort of relief.

This is a good example of a mental map.  This map specifically shows information about different ideas to try to keep a healthy lifestyle and the different factors that are involved.  A mental map is used to put together ideas and this map does that well in the area of health.
