A geographical decision-making tool that employs randomization to select locations or paths on a map. Imagine a digital or physical map where a spinner or similar mechanism determines the ultimate point of focus or travel based on pre-defined parameters.
Such a method can be useful in mitigating bias in site selection, randomly generating travel itineraries, or in educational contexts to introduce an element of chance to map-based learning. Historically, simpler forms of geographical lotteries have been used in urban planning and resource allocation.
