As technology advances, paper map media are quickly replaced by maps on computer screens. However, along with different demands, many display methods are used on maps. Review of existing literature indicates that more research emphasis is given to the interaction of maps and readers. Research on the combination of animation with maps is lacking. Therefore, this study tries to combine the principles of cartography and animation elements to construct animated maps. A questionnaire survey, along with cognitive map theories, is conducted to reflect the readers’ perception of the animated maps. Results should help to develop new design principles for animated maps.
