1) "Postcode" -- As to postcode maps post·code
Pronunciation: 'pOs(t)-"kOd
Function: noun
: a code (as of numbers and letters) used similarly to the zip code especially in the United Kingdom and Australia Pronunciation Symbols
Postal codes are generally clearly visible outside local Australian post offices. A postal code (known in various countries as a post code, postcode, or ZIP code) is a series of letters and/or digits appended to a postal address for the purpose of sorting mail. Germany was the first country to introduce a postal code system, in 1941. The United Kingdom followed in 1959 and the United States in 1963. In February 2005, 117 of the 190 member countries of the Universal Postal Union had postal code systems. Examples of countries that do not are Ireland (although one will be introduced there in 2008 [1]), Hong Kong, Panama and Vietnam. Although postal codes are usually assigned to geographical areas, special codes are sometimes assigned to individual addresses or to institutions that receive large volumes of mail, such as government agencies and large commercial companies. One example is the French Cedex system. - 1 Usage conventions

A map is a simplified depiction of a space which highlights relations between components (objects, regions) of that space. Most usually a map is a two-dimensional, geometrically accurate representation of a three-dimensional space; e.g., a geographical map. More generally, maps can be devised to represent any local property of the world or part of it, or any other space, such as the brain (see Brain mapping). - 1 Geographical maps

| The science and art of map-making is cartography; see that page for further discussion of the history of maps and map-making. Map-making dates back to the Stone Age and appears to predate written language by several millennia. One of the oldest surviving maps is painted on a wall of the Catal Huyuk settlement in south-central Anatolia (now Turkey); it dates from about 6200 BC. [Harvey 2000, p. 142]. While we tend to think of maps today as products of a rationalistic, scientific world-view, maps also have a mythic quality. Pre-modern maps, and mapping traditions outside the Western tradition, often merge geography with non-scientific cosmography, showing the relationship of the viewer to the universe. Medieval "T-O" maps, for example, show Jerusalem at the centre of the world, and in some cases related the "body" of the Earth to the body of Christ. By contrast, navigational (or "Portolan") charts of the Mediterranean from the same period are remarkably accurate. E..."
