We navigate our world through mental “maps,” which give us a way to think about concepts and the relationships among them. The better our mental maps, the better we are able to understand cause-and-effect relationships, predict outcomes, and apply our knowledge to reality.

Specifically, we’ll look at two key factors in data: shape and interface. And, once we define these concepts, we can think about the relationship between them.
