摘要：The role of art in relation to maps is being reappraised on the basis of a perceived ability to depict aspects of a place that mapsalone cannot. Many as opposed to one perspective on a place communicates more fully the essence of that place (with art as avaluable source of qualitative geospatial data) and so maps and art should be presented in the same visualization package. Thispaper outlines the development and implementation of an interface where a scanned painting forms the mode of access to multitemporalmaps. The interface is used to represent the history and habitat extent of the kea (alpine parrot) in New Zealand frompre human colonization times through to their present, limited range to a speculation on their future habitat. The painting and themap (in what has been termed in the literature as an anti-map / map combination) are in their own separate layers and joined byan interactive link. The interface harnesses the ability of visual art to aggregate multiple themes, locations and times into a singlecohesive image. The ability to contain many temporal instances is close to the comic strip frame (and instances of Renaissanceart) in particular, with, in this case, an implicit time frame from left to right on the painting. The use of an artistic imageminimizes use of text to depict events, due to the visual and narrative power of the painting
