A dasymetric map (from Greek δασύς dasýs 'dense' and μέτρο métro 'measure') is a type of thematic map that uses areal symbols to visualize a geographic field by refining a choropleth map with ancillary information about the distribution of the variable. The name refers to the fact that the most common variable mapped using this ...
Map of world population density in 1994 Map of world population density in 2005. Since its inception, population geography has taken at least three distinct but related forms, the most recent of which appears increasingly integrated with human geography in general.
Area is from official figures. [17] ^ Excludes the Faroe Islands and Greenland. Overall density is 2.5/km² when including those two. ^ Mainland France (122/km²) and Corsica (39/km²) comprise European France or Metropolitan France. Overall density is 107/km² when including Overseas departments (24/km²). [18] ^ Excluding Madeira (313/km²).
