trap streets  

Définition(s)

  • Trap streets is a term used to refer to the cartographic convention whereby mapmakers deliberately insert fake places (such as streets and street names) into their maps so as to later be able to demonstrate plagiarism by other cartographers. For well over a century, the U.S. court system has dealt with copyright infringement lawsuits brought when a cartographer or publishing company believes that their maps have been directly copied by a competitor.
