Abstract
Methods of computer mapping for linguistic data are heavily dependent upon the linguistic theory that the researcher brings to the task. The most familiar maps in language variation studies derive from a Neogrammarian approach; they assume the existence of areas where a “dialect” might exist. This paper reviews alternative methods in the age of GIS.
