Method for generating contiguous cartograms

The present invention is a method for generating cartograms using a base map of contiguous polygons and a vector containing values to which areas of corresponding polygons are scaled. The general problem is intractable, so an iterative heuristic is proposed. The heuristic is based on "scanlines...
