2. Existing Works: Mapping Locations to Geographic Positions
Advantages:
Location properties and importance
Instant visual queries of certain locations/areas
Mainstreams of birth-death flows
Limitations:
Point-to-Point Interactive relationships among certain locations
Locations with high centrality worldwide, through different years
Clustering patterns of highly interactive locations
