Image map

In computing, a list of co-ordinates relating to a specific image, created in order to hyperlink areas of the image to various destinations. Thus a world map may have each country hyperlinked to further information about that country. The intention of an image map is to provide an easy way of linking various parts of an image without resorting to dividing the image into separate parts.
