Mapping population data from zone centroid locations.
The author describes the difficulties associated with the use of maps to represent census data.  "A review of the problems associated with population mapping is followed by a discussion of [an alternative method known as] a raster method for handling census data, based on population-weighted centroids, and its implications for GIS "[geographic information systems]."  The geographical scope is worldwide, with an example provided using data for Wales.
