Cartograms are a kind of map that distortes the map to show the magnitude of the variable. For example this is a map showing a typical thematic map of the median age of Britian on the top, while showing the cartogram with the the size of the area distorted to show the magnitiude of the population that livesin that area, London mostly. I found this off a population research website.http://www.sasi.group.shef.ac.uk/publications/pandpimages/g14_illness_disability_and_adults.jpg
