c. Displaying demographic information by maps
As we have known that besides using tables and graphs, demographic information can also be gained from maps. A type of map that describes various demographic phenomena is
called a thematic map. Demographic phenomena described in the map are various; depend on the needs and
other supported facilities. The example is the map of population distribution. The map of demographic data takes a very important role in setting up the development plan of a region.
Displaying figures of demographic data through maps looks more interesting and communicative than tables. A map that comprises demographic data is called thematic demographic map.
There are various types of demographic data, but the most important data that can be mapped are population number, population composition based on age and sex, population
density, population distribution, birth rates, mortality rates, mobility rates, and workforce rates.

Summary
Population composition is the description of population states in a region based on particular criterion. The criterion can be geographic, biological and social.
Geographic population composition is based on location, such as population of countryside and city. Biological population composition is based on sex and age. Social
population composition is based on social identity, marriage status, and education level. Demographic dynamics is events that continuously occur and inter related concerning the
change of population number. Population growth is distinguished into natural and social.
Demographic information can be displayed in the form of table, graph and map. Chapter 2 Evaluation
