The concept of spacetime maps revolves around visualizing travel times in a manner that distorts traditional maps. Users have commented on the effectiveness of these maps, suggesting that NYC may not be the best default example since distances feel similar throughout the city. The author shared a video detailing the map's creation, which intrigued many. Some feedback pointed out that for regions notorious for heavy traffic, like LA, the distortion appears minimal and could be confused with random alterations. An additional suggestion was made regarding the interaction with the map, proposing local distortion rather than a global perspective to enhance usability.
