"Hey Bill, you seem pretty down, what's going on?"

"Awww. Sorry to hear that."

"Mmmmm, thanks. Hey, now that I don't have a girlfriend, do you want to catch up for a drink sometime...?"

"Not til you're well and truly out of that glumdudgeon mode, boyo..."

"Oh man, brilliant. That guy is such a sparkarse..!"

mapographic

Mapographic (n)

A map covering areas such as regions, states, countries, or even the entire world that conveys - using only graphics and minimal text - quite complex data in a very simple and understandable way.

It is essentially an 'infographic', but it is in the form of a map, showing the 'where' as well at the 'what'.
Manager: "Hey Bill, can we show all of the projects we're doing all over the country and all the outputs from each of them on one map...?"

Bill: "Yep, I can do that, and I can put it into a really great Mapographic, which will show everything, everywhere, all at once, and make it simple so everyone can understand..."

Manager: "Yes, that's what we want. Let's do that. That sounds awesome...!"
