Fluid regionalisation of semantic regions: possibilities for visualisation

Abstract

This paper explores diverse visualisation methods of regionalisation based on a semantic analysis of institutionalised region names (choronyms) and adopts a fluid (fuzzy) approach to regional boundaries. Grounded in the theory of the institutionalisation of regions, the study examines how region shapes delineate their identities, resulting in an overlapping space of regions. Thus, the nature of this approach in regional geography requires multiple visualisations of areal features. The outcome is map representations of regions in the Czech-German-Polish borderland, illustrating regionalisation beyond traditional regional geography.
