Abstract
Text content is received. Map elements, and an associated text content position at which each of the map elements exist, are identified. One or more characteristics for each of the identified map elements are identified and associated with the corresponding identified map element, including the associated text content position. A furthest position of the text content read by a user of a user device is received. A graphical map is generated, displaying map locations of identified map elements and their associated characteristics, where the associated text content position of the identified map elements and the associated characteristics is up to the furthest position of the text content read by the user of the user device. The generated map is transmitted for display on the user device.
