If you are expected to use that level of computer technology, the information you need should either be part of the subject curriculum or available from your tutors.

It may also help if you provide more background about the applications or programs you intend to use.

No doubt somebody here will be able to advise you, but one tip I can give you is this: Unless you are planning on vacuuming up the information, best you use hover techniques instead of hoovering. :D

Cheers

392096 2005-09-29 21:44:00 Depends on what program the assignment specifies you must use
If you have a free reign the simplest would be an html page using image maps to dissect the map and use the alt tag
Pretty basic but will work
Post back if you need something more complicated as there are dozens of different methods to acheive it, depending on what programs you have available to you.
