On a thematic map, the features shown that are not part of the subject, such as coastlines and boundaries, are called

  • A.the neatline
  • B.the base map
  • C.the thematic overlay
  • D.the graticule

Answer: B

The base supplies enough geography for the reader to locate the pattern without competing with it. It is usually drawn in a lighter weight for exactly that reason, which is a figure-ground decision as much as a content one.
